Fox Renews THE GREAT NORTH

Ahead of THE GREAT NORTH’s series premiere—which is currently set to debut midseason 2020-2021—Fox has renewed the animated comedy for a second season. The series was created by BOB’S BURGERS vets Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin and REGULAR SHOW’s Minty Lewis, and executive produced by BOB’S BURGERS creator Loren Bouchard.

“Wendy, Lizzie, Minty and Loren delivered a show that embodies our animation brand so strongly, they left us no choice but to give this stellar series an early renewal ahead of its midseason debut,” said Michael Thorn, President, Entertainment, for FOX Entertainment in a statement. “Of course, we’d also like to thank our friends at 20^th, who continue to be tremendous partners.”

According to Fox, “THE GREAT NORTH follows the Alaskan adventures of the Tobin family, as a single dad, BEEF (Nick Offerman), does his best to keep his weird bunch of kids close – especially his only daughter, JUDY (Jenny Slate), whose artistic dreams lead her away from the family fishing boat and into the glamorous world of the local mall. Rounding out the family are Judy’s older brother, WOLF, (Will Forte) and his fiancé, HONEYBEE (Dulcé Sloan), her middle brother, HAM (Paul Rust), and ten-year-old-going-on-fifty little brother, MOON (Aparna Nancherla). While their mother is not in the picture, Judy seeks guidance from her new boss, ALYSON (Megan Mullaly), and her imaginary friend, ALANIS MORISSETTE (guest-voicing as herself), who appears to her in the Northern Lights. Bento Box Entertainment serves as the animation studio on THE GREAT NORTH.”
