Life and career
David Herbert Caspe grew up in Chicago, Illinois.[1][2]
In 2006, Caspe moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in screenwriting. In 2010, his screenplay for I Hate You, Dad (later re-titled That's My Boy) was picked up by Sony and Happy Madison productions. The film starred Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg, and was released on June 15, 2012.
Caspe's ABC series Happy Endings ran for three seasons, ending its run on May 3, 2013. As well as creating the series, he was also the executive producer and co-showrunner. He went on to create the NBC sitcom Marry Me, which he again collaborated on with his wife Casey Wilson (they had previously met on Happy Endings), the premise was loosely based on Wilson and Caspe's relationship. The series starred Wilson and Ken Marino as a newly engaged couple and ran for one season from 2014 to 2015. Caspe is known to set his shows in his hometown of Chicago.
Along with Jordan Cahan and Daniel & Matthew Libman, Caspe co-created the YouTube Premium series Champaign ILL starring Adam Pally, Sam Richardson, and Jay Pharoah. The series premiered on December 12, 2018.
His next series Black Monday was picked up by Showtime in 2017, starring Don Cheadle, Regina Hall, and Andrew Rannells. Caspe and co-creator Jordan Cahan will serve as showrunners and produce the show alongside executive producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.[3] The first season premiered on January 20, 2019. The series concluded on August 1, 2021 after three seasons.
In July 2020, Caspe was brought in as the showrunner and executive producer to work with co-creator Jackie Clarke and to develop the re-tooled pilot and first season for the new NBC sitcom Kenan, starring Saturday Night Live cast member Kenan Thompson. The series ran for two seasons from 2021 to 2022. Caspe and Clarke are currently the showrunner-executive producers on the upcoming Netflix comedy Blockbuster, starring Randall Park. The series is set to premiere in late 2022.
