Ayo Edebiri and Rachel Sennott Starred in a Sketch Series Prior to ‘Bottoms’

Excitement is already building for the upcoming teen comedy Bottoms, with the release of its highly anticipated trailer. The film brings together rising stars Ayo Edebiri and Rachel Sennott, who have previously collaborated on the short-lived Comedy Central series Ayo and Rachel are Single in 2020. This satirical sketch series was a testament to their chemistry and comedic talents – a hint at what’s to come in Bottoms.

Edebiri and Sennott are actresses, writers, and stand-up comedians who have steadily risen to fame since their Comedy Central series. Edebiri has an impressive resume as a writer on popular shows such as What We Do In the Shadows, Dickinson, and Big Mouth where she took over as the voice of Missy in 2020. She also stars in FX’s hit series The Bear which returns for its second season later this month. Meanwhile, Sennott earned greater recognition for her scene-stealing performance in Bodies, Bodies, Bodies, and currently stars in HBO’s The Idol as Jocelyn’s best friend and assistant.

Co-created by Edebiri and Sennott, Ayo and Rachel Are Single follows fictionalized versions of themselves as they grapple with millennial dating life in New York City. This series satirizes millennial dating culture with references unique to the city, ironically airing in 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic made dating even more complicated. The series was, unfortunately, short-lived with only three episodes, but it showcased the duo’s comedic talents and their chemistry.

Their collaboration on Ayo and Rachel Are Single was a precursor to Bottoms, a queer sex comedy about two high schoolers who start a fight club for girls to get close to their crushes. Co-written by Sennott, the film has been described as “Fight Club meets Heathers”, with a poster that harkens back to classic teen comedies like Not Another Teen Movie and She’s the Man. Fans of Edebiri and Sennott can catch them in their individual projects, but they’d do well to tune in to their hilarious collaboration in Ayo and Rachel Are Single before Bottoms hits theaters on August 25th.
