SANTA MONICA, Calif., July 28, 2018 - Amazon Studios today announced it has greenlit the half-hour sci-fi romantic satire Upload from Emmy Award-winner Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks and Recreation, King of the Hill) and his producing partner Howard Klein (The Office, Parks and Recreation, King of the Hill).

"I'm thrilled to be once again working with Greg and Howard on this new series," said Vernon Sanders, Co-Head of Television, Amazon Studios. "They've made some of the best comedies of the last three decades and I know our Prime Video customers are in for a treat when Upload premieres."

"Amazon is the perfect place to make Upload," said Daniels, "because of their strong creative team, and because it's a company that could actually one day host a digital afterlife. If I get in good with them, I'm hoping for a big discount on my first thousand years."
