HIGH SCHOOL USA! (Premiering Saturday, July 27):
Join the super-positive, millennial students of HIGH SCHOOL USA!, as they confront all the unique challenges of growing up in a modern world.

The series features an all-star cast including Vincent Kartheiser (“Mad Men”), Mandy Moore (“Tangled”) and comedian Nathan Barnatt. HIGH SCHOOL USA! is created, written and executive-produced by Dino Stamatopoulos (“Community,” “Mr. Show,” “TV Funhouse,” “Moral Orel”).

The stand-up comedy of New York-based identical twins Kenny and Keith Lucas (The Lucas Brothers) gets animated. After their uncle dies and leaves them his old van, the twins start a moving company called Va¢ation Boy$. Their customers are often apprehensive to hire such a scrawny duo, but the brothers like to remind them that that’s why God made two of them. A day that begins simply by moving a bed down the street may lead to the threat of city-wide catastrophe, resolved only with the help of a once-famous ’90s wrestler. No matter what happens around them, KENNY and KEITH always remain totally, bizarrely unfazed. LUCAS BROS. MOVING CO. (wt) is created, written and executive-produced by Kenny and Keith Lucas.
