Ally Maki Featured in ‘Wrecked’ on TBS

“Wrecked,” TBS’ new ensemble comedy about a group of strangers stranded on a deserted island following a plane crash, premiered on June 14 and airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m.

Ally Maki plays Jess on “Wrecked.”

“Wrecked” is a single-camera comedy that centers on a diverse group of survivors adjusting to being stranded on an uninhabited island, a dangerous new world where they must face many threats – mostly brought on by themselves. No longer plugged into the rest of the world, the group struggles to navigate their makeshift society while also learning to live without such modern comforts as indoor plumbing, wi-fi, social media and Chipotle.

The ensemble cast for includes Zach Cregger (“About a Boy,” “Miss March”), Rhys Darby (“What We Do in the Shadows,” “Yes Man”), Jessica Lowe (“Blended,” “Glitch”), Asif Ali (“The 4 to 9ers: The Day Crew,” “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”), Ally Maki (“2 Broke Girls,” “Hot in Cleveland”), Will Greenberg (“Cloverfield,” “Halt and Catch Fire”), Brooke Dillman (“Superbad,” “Bob’s Burgers”), Ginger Gonzaga (“Ted,” “The Morning After”) and Brian Sacca (“The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Single Dads”).

“Wrecked,” which has been described as a cross between “Lost” and “Gilligan’s Island,” comes from the minds of writers and executive producers Justin Shipley and Jordan Shipley and producer Jesse Hara (“Night Owls,” “Happythankyoumoreplease”). Moses Port (“Community,” “Happy Endings”) serves as executive producer and showrunner on the series, which is being produced by TBS.

Maki, who recently appeared in Elle and Allure magazines, has guest-starred on such shows as “New Girl,” “NCIS,” “Franklin & Bash,” and “The Big Bang Theory.” She played the androgynous forensic anthropologist Haru Tanaka in an episode of “Bones” and had a recurring role as Dawn on the ABC Family series “10 Things I Hate About You.”

Her film credits include “Geography Club,” “Amelia’s 25th,” “The Family Tree,” and “Music High.” The Seattle native has also appeared in commercials and stage plays, and was a singer and keyboard player with The Valli Girls, a band signed to Columbia/Sony Records.
