Actors Rashida Jones and Will McCormack are set to co-produce Claws, an hour-long dramedy about five Florida-based manicurists who dabble in little more than just acrylics and French manicures.

A playful adaptation of Warner Brother’s Le Tain Train, the show will delve into the world of organized crime where women are the ringleaders who moonlight as manicurists at the Nail Artisan of Mantee County salon. 

So what can we expect from the show? Lots of jokes and maybe a hit(wo)man or two whose “go” phrase is “polish change.” One things for sure, by the end of the season, which airs this fall, you’ll be questioning your manicurist anytime she side eyes a co-worker and that questionable “delivery guy” who always frequents your salon claiming he has a “package.”
