- Doyle is best known for creating, writing, and directing Bonding, a dark sex comedy that debuted at Canneseries in 2018, won the Audience Award at Outfest that year, and premiered on Netflix in April 2019 — earning an Emmy nomination.
- Doyle directed, exec produced, and showran 2023's Little Sky, starring Samara Weaving, which the source notes marked Netflix's first pilot order.

Why it matters: The CAA signing lands Doyle — a filmmaker behind an Emmy-nominated Netflix series (Bonding) and Netflix's first-ever pilot order (Little Sky) — on a major agency's roster, though he retains Anonymous Content and Jackoway Austen Tyerman, making this an expansion of representation rather than a full agency switch.
