Fox has ordered a second season of its animated family comedy Duncanville for 2021-22. The series, a co-production between Disney’s 20th Century Fox TV, Universal TV and Fox Entertainment, is co-created by Amy Poehler and married duo Mike and Julie Scully and joins fellow freshman animated comedy Bless the Harts as having earned an early pickup at the network.
Duncanville — which features a voice cast that Poehler who also voices Duncan’s mother, Annie, and Ty Burrell voices Duncan’s father, Jack. Featured voices also include Riki Lindhome, Betsy Sodaro, Yassir Lester and Zach Cherry, as well as guest voices Rashida Jones, Wiz Khalifa and Joy Osmanski.
The series follows a spectacularly average 15-year-old boy, voiced by Poehler, with a rich fantasy life, and the people in his world. Duncan can see adulthood on the horizon: money, freedom, cars, girls — but the reality is more like: always being broke, driving with your mom sitting shotgun and babysitting your little sister. He’s not exceptional, but he has a wild imagination in which he’s never anything less than amazing.
