American comedian Iliza Shlesinger is to make a self-titled sketch show  for Netflix.

The six half-hour episodes will be shot in New York this autumn for a launch next year.

Netflix describes the show  as ‘a secret world filled with absurd characters, insight into the female experience, and irreverent yet poignant social commentary’.

The streaming giant will also releaser her fifth stand-up special later this year. Earlier show Elder Millennial, Confirmed Kills, Freezing Hot, and War Paint are already available on the platform.

 The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show will be made by Avalon, whose management arm are also her agents in the UK.
