LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: If you were to look up the exact meaning of 'Bupkis,' it’s actually quite simple despite the odd-sounding word.

Everything about this upcoming action-comedy reflects Davidson’s life, and his fans are more than thrilled about it. 'Bupkis' will have your head spinning with the premise, cast, and everything that follows Peacock’s newest venture.
