AceShowbiz - After debuted at the Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills, the first sneak peek of Woody Allen's Amazon series "Crisis in Six Scenes" is finally shared online. The approximately one-and-a-half-minute video features one of the two scenes that were played at the show's TCA panel.
It opens with old footage of protest as a narrator says, "The 1960s, American society is brought to the verge of revolution and in the midst of this social turmoil is Sidney Muntzinger (Allen)." Allen's writer character is then seen asking his barber to give him James Dean's haircut.
The comedy also stars Miley Cyrus and Elaine May, with Rachel Brosnahan and John Magaro as recurring guest actors. It centers on a middle class suburban family who is visited by a guest who turns their household completely upside down.
The six half-hour episodes of the series will premiere September 30 on Amazon.
The streaming service has also released trailers for other new series "One Mississippi" starring comedian Tig Notaro, "Goliath" starring Billy Bob Thornton, and "Fleabag" starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
