With the recent revelation that his upcoming heist comedy Masterminds has been postponed indefinitely due to Relativity Media filing for bankruptcy, Zach Galifinakis probably needs some good news to keep his week light. Thankfully, the first clip for his FX show Baskets is here, just in time to save the day.
Galifianakis stars in the comedy series, which was co-created by Louis C.K., as Chip Baskets—a man from Bakersfield, California, who desperately wants to become a professional clown. When he’s rejected from a “prestigious clowning school in Paris,” Baskets continues to follow his dream by working for his town’s rodeo.
While the plot is intriguing and appealing, the first clip that FX has released has nothing to do with any of that. It’s twenty glorious seconds of Galifianakis trying to order a soda from a drive-thru window. Enjoy.

Baskets is set to premiere on FX in January 2016.
