About the Series

Red Oaks is an Amazon original series that is a coming-of-age comedy set in the “go-go” 80s about a college student enjoying a last hurrah before summer comes to an end–and the future begins. It stars Craig Roberts and Paul Resier.

Set in suburban New Jersey in 1985, Red Oaks centers around college student David Meyer–a young man at a crossroads as he tries to figure out who he is and what he wants to be in this world. He gets a summer job as an assistant tennis pro at the Red Oaks Country Club and while there, David finds himself the recipient of unsolicited life advice from a colorful group of coworkers and club members.
