An official trailer for the new Netflix series from BoJack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg, Long Story Short, has just dropped, along with an early announcement that the animated show has a bright future ahead. Long Story Short spans decades in the life of a dysfunctional yet loving family.

Show renewals are hard to get nowadays. Several factors influence a series' chances of growth. Many networks and streamers look for high audience viewership, how much the show gains traction in the media, especially on social apps, the financial side (how costly it is to make the show), etc. Whatever doesn't yield a return on its investment gets the "doomed" canceled tag. Yet, there are times a show hears the sweet sounds of renewal, even before season 1 becomes available. Netflixjust made the rare decision to renew Raphael Matthew Bob-Waksberg's upcoming animated comedy, Long Story Short, weeks before its users can stream the debut season.

It seems like the streamer believes it'll be love at first sight with Netflix users and the new animation, which is set to premiere on August 22, 2025. According to The Hollywood Reporter, season 1 will have 10 episodes, and they'll be thirty minutes long each. News of the...

Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson played best friends on their Comedy Central series Broad City for five seasons, though they recently revealed that they had to set boundaries while filming the show.

Since they were spending so much time together during the show’s production schedule, Glazer and Jacobson explained that they had to make sure to give each other space when needed. “We didn’t, like, hang out. I think when we were doing it, we would be like, ‘See you on Monday,'” Jacobson recalled on Tuesday’s episode of Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast.

“We weren’t like hanging out as friends during Broad City. We couldn’t,” Glazer added.

Jacobson explained that the decision to set boundaries wasn’t personal. “It was just like, after 12, 14 hours of Monday through Friday, we were like, ‘Let’s not do dinner on Saturday,'” she said.

"Stay on your side of the invisible line!" Netflix has finally revealed the first look at the next new animated series from the creator of BoJack Horseman, known as Raphael Bob-Waksberg. His new animated series is called Long Story Short, available to watch streaming on Netflix starting in August later this summer. A dysfunctional family's (the Schwoopers) shared history, inside jokes, and old wounds are explored in this adult animated comedy spanning multiple years of time.

Viewers will watch them from childhood to adulthood, but as the footage shows, age doesn't necessarily make them any more mature.

"Forrest Gump" and "The Green Mile" often rank high on the list of people's favorite Tom Hanks movies, but real ones know that "A League of Their Own" deserves the true top spot. With its charming, funny, and often hard-hitting script, this was the film that signaled a shift in Hanks' movie career. Before 1992, he mainly starred in comedies; after '92, he was more likely to star in serious, Oscar-worthy projects. It's tough for some actors to make that transition, but it helps when the movie designed to prove your dramatic talents is as strong as this one.

"A League of Their Own" was a critical success and an instant box office hit, one that was added to the National Film Archive in 2012 for its cultural importance. Most fans of the film today are also aware of the 2022 Prime Video reboot TV series "A League of Their Own," which was...

The future of No Good Deed is very uncertain.

There are currently no plans to renew the show for a second season at Netflix, Deadline confirmed – but it could, in theory, come back with a new cast.

Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow star in the new Netflix television show, which is “about the highs and lows of searching for a safe, happy home and just how far we’re willing to go to protect ourselves and our loved ones in the process.”

Also starring in the series are Linda Cardellini, O-t Fagbenle, Abbi Jacobson, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu, Teyonah Parris and Luke Wilson.

As the saying goes, No Good Deed goes unpunished. Amid a day when the cancellation axe has already cut down the comedic murder-mystery The Residence and the medical procedural Pulse, Netflix is also hitting the pause button on its darkly comedic anthology series, according to Deadline. The show, which featured a bevy of talent led by Lisa Kudrow and Linda Cardellini, has been waiting for an update since its first season dropped back in December, and it was becoming clear that the news would not be good when it arrived. Fortunately, there is a ray of hope as, while there are currently no plans for a sophomore outing, sources have said that a second season is possible in the future with a new cast and an entirely new story.

Part of the reason for the indefinite pause likely came down to the lukewarm reception to the series from audiences. Although...

No Good Deed won’t be burying any more secrets at Netflix — for now, at least.

Lisa Kudrow and HBO aren’t letting the Friends star’s cult comedy go without a proper goodbye, and so it is that The Comeback is getting revived for a third and final season. The series, created by Michael Patrick King and Lisa Kudrow, celebrated the 20th anniversary of its launch earlier this month, making today’s news monumental for fans. The revival speaks to the show’s lasting appeal, Kudrow’s endearing screen presence, and HBO’s desire to bring a familiar face back for more much-needed laughs.

The third and final season of The Comeback heads to production this summer for a 2026 HBO and HBO Max debut. In The Comeback, Lisa Kudrow plays Valerie Cherish, an ex-a-list celebrity attempting to rekindle the flame of her once prominent acting career with nothing but a camera crew and some determination.

“Valerie Cherish has found her way back to the current television landscape.

America saw a powerful response to President Donald Trump’s military parade with the nationwide No Kings protest, held across major and small cities, including Los Angeles. Among the thousands who participated were several notable Hollywood figures, including Two and a Half Men star Jon Cryer.

Cryer not only joined the protest but also made a subtle yet striking statement by wearing an Andor-inspired shirt. With its Rebel Alliance-style design and message, the shirt echoed the series’ anti-fascist themes, adding a symbolic layer to his presence at what has become one of the largest protest waves in recent American history.

Why Jon Cryer’s ‘Andor‘ statement at the Donald Trump protest is turning heads online?

Hollywood stars, including Mark Ruffalo, joined the “No Kings” protest against President Donald Trump. A few famous faces who supported the protest against Trump’s policies included Ruffalo’s Marvel co-star Marisa Tomei, Susan Sarandon, Kerry Washington, Jimmy Kimmel, Ayo Edebiri, Anna Kendrick, and others.

The rallies called out the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies and other executive orders that allegedly violated constitutional rights and laws. It was conducted on the same day that the President held a controversial military parade in Washington, allegedly to celebrate his 79th birthday.

Raphael Bob-Waksberg, the man broadly credited with reinventing animation with his 6-season, three-time Emmy-nominated Netflix hit Bojack Horseman, is back with more family trauma, but no taking animals, in Long Story Short.

The new Netflix animated series, which Bob-Waksberg premiered at the Annecy international animation film festival on Thursday, follows the trials and tribulations, or as Bob-Waksberg puts it, the “small t traumas,” of the Schwoopers, a fairly ordinary Jewish family.

“On one hand, it is an animated family comedy like Bob’s Burgers or King of the Hill, that kind of show, we have two parents, three kids,” he said, speaking at Annecy ahead of the series’ world premiere. “But the way we’re telling stories is a little different, in that we’re traveling back and forth through time. Not by using a time machine, just in the way we’re telling stories. So in the first episode, we...

“Long Story Short” cuts to the point. Coming from “BoJack Horseman” creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg, it’s without the parody dressing “BoJack Horseman” presents, instead getting closer to the heart of human conflict and comedy.

Screening at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival this week, the first episode of the “BoJack” creator’s latest animated Netflix series sees Avi (Ben Feldman) bring his new girlfriend Jennifer (Abbi Jacobson) to meet his family ahead of his little brother Yoshi’s (Max Greenfield) Bat Mitzvah. It drowns you in overlapping dialogue, religious anxiety, and eccentric family members, immediately distancing itself from Waksberg’s past work. The series then follows the Jewish family through the years, their hopes, and disappointments.

“I was thinking about family, time, and identity,” Waksberg told IndieWire at Annecy. “In the writers room, I wrote those up on a board, like this is what the show is about. More specifically,...

BoJack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg wishes the networks and studios would be “a little more courageous” on adult animation.

Noting today’s “industry contraction,” Bob-Waksberg said decisions by the gatekeepers are “being made out of fear” in the current landscape, which he “empathizes” with.

“I feel like there are a lot of artists and writers who want to do exciting things and kind of push the edges of what adult animation can be,” he told Deadline at Annecy. “I think it’s hard. You’d always rather take a safe bet than a riskier bet, but I feel there is more room in adult animation to be telling more stories than we currently are.”

Bob-Waksberg, whose 10-year-old Netflix hit BoJack Horseman redefined adult animation, noted that the contraction has hit genres across the board, leading to risk-aversion everywhere.

He was speaking a day after Adventure Time showrunner Adam Muto said “idiosyncratic voices” are getting lost,...
