At today’s Adult Swim – Defying Expectations Panel at Annecy International Animation Film Festival, Adult Swim announced the two brand-new animated series as well as the return of a fan favorite, currently in production for the network:
Oh My God, Yes! A Series of Extremely Relatable Circumstances
Created by Emmy-nominated writer and executive producer Adele “Supreme” Williams (Netflix’s My Dad the Bounty Hunter), the quarter-hour comedy follows three best friends navigating the wild and dicey dating misadventures in South Central L.A., circa 2102.
A pilot episode for the series aired last year as part of Adult Swim’s pilot block, and is currently available to watch on adultswim.com. Oh My God Yes! is executive produced by Dominique Braud and produced for Adult Swim by Six Point Harness.
Ha Ha You Clowns
Adult Swim has ordered a full series pick-up of the popular Adult Swim SMALLS animated short series. The quarter-hour comedy follows three sweet natured brothers who, alongside their deeply caring father, embark on various adventures as they bond together in the wake of their mother’s passing. Inspired by suburban family TV shows of the past, this series mixes heartfelt emotions with surreal comedy.
Ha Ha You Clowns is created by Joe Cappa, whose animated short Ghost Dogs was a 2021 Sundance Festival Official Selection and winner of the Satoshi Kon Award at Fantasia.
In addition, Adult Swim announced that the hit series SMILING FRIENDS currently in its sophomore season, will return to Adult Swim for a third season.
Co-created and starring Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel, SMILING FRIENDS follows the employees of a small company dedicated to bringing happiness to a bizarre yet colorful world. The series was also selected for official competition at this year’s Annecy International Animation Film Festival.
