FOX Entertainment today unveils its content slate for the 2024-2025 television season to the national advertising community during its in-person Upfront Presentation at the Manhattan Center. FOX is adding new dramas, new comedies and new unscripted series to its lineup, spanning scripted, reality and animation.
“With outstanding original ideas and world-class talent across both new series and returning favorites, FOX’s 2024-25 schedule is filled with unexpected, unforgettable entertainment in every genre,” said FOX Entertainment CEO Rob Wade. “Great creative is the center of all we do, and that is reflected in next season’s lineup, as is our ability to attract so many of the industry’s finest storytellers.”
Returning FOX series include animated series Bob’s Burgers (Season 15), Family Guy (Season 23), The Great North (Season Five), Grimsburg (Season 2), Krapopolis (Season 2) and The Simpsons (Season 36). The network will also welcome the all-new animated comedy Universal Basic Guys, from FOX’s Emmy Award-winning animation house, Bento Box Entertainment.
Family Guy, The Great North and Grimsburg are slated to make their returns midseason.
As previously confirmed, FOX has not renewed HouseBroken for a third season. And announced in January, The Simpsons, Family Guy and Bob’s Burgers have all been renewed for two more seasons.
From creators Adam and Craig Malamut (Sports Friends, Game of Zones, The Champions), animated comedy Universal Basic Guys centers on two brothers, Mark and Hank Hoagies, who lose their jobs to automation and are given $3,000 a month in a new basic income program. Now, they’re using their free time and free money to find purpose in a world where they’re no longer needed.
Universal Basic Guys is co-produced by FOX Entertainment through its Emmy Award-winning animation studio, Bento Box Entertainment and Sony Pictures Television. The series is executive produced by Adam and Craig Malamut. Dan Lagana (Deadbeat, American Vandal) is executive producer and showrunner for Season One. Rob Rosell (Dave, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) will serve as executive producer and showrunner for Season 2, announced for greenlight today.
A preview of Universal Basic Guys was revealed Monday morning. Watch it here.
