Hulu has described PEN15 as “middle school as it really happened. Erskine and Konkle play versions of themselves as 13-year-old outcasts in the year 2000, surrounded by actual 13-year-olds, where the best day of your life can turn into your worst with the stroke of a gel pen.”

The series was created by and stars Maya Erskine, Anna Konkle, and Sam Zvibleman. Erskine and Konkle will play younger versions of themselves, two 13-year-old outcasts as they forage through the daily terror of middle school in the year 2000.

Woke follows the story of an African-American cartoonist living in San Francisco, who is finally on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything. Keef must now navigate the new voices and ideas that confront and challenge him, all without setting aflame everything he’s already built.

Pen15 is set to return on September 18 while Woke is set to premiere on September 9.
