Just at the start of his first summer of sexual freedom, his ex-wife disappears, leaving him with the kids and no hint of where she is or whether she plans to return.<\/p>\n<p>Brodesser-Akner will serve as the writer of the nine-episode limited series and executive produce it along with Sarah Timberman, Carl Beverly and Susannah Grant.<\/p>\n<p><em>Fleishman is in Trouble<\/em> will be produced by ABC Signature and be available exclusively on FX on Hulu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Fleishman is in Trouble<\/em> offers an unsparing, modern take on life, love and commitment in Taffy Brodesser-Akner\u2019s terrific debut novel and we are thrilled that she is adapting it as a limited series for FX,\u201d said Gina Balian, president of original programming at FX. \u201cSarah Timberman, Carl Beverly and Susannah Grant join Taffy on the creative team that will work with ABC Signature to capture the energy and edge of this story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brodesser-Akner said, &#8220;I&#8217;m thrilled to be extending Fleishman&#8217;s life onto the screen with such smart, thoughtful and courageous partners. When I was writing this book, my aim was to resolve for myself the mystifying dynamics and politics of marriage and middle age.
