HBO picks up two seasons of the Duplass brothers’ new cartoon

HBO has ordered not one, but two seasons of Mark and Jay Duplass’ new animated show Animals, on the strength of a strong showing from the comedy at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. (The network presumably realized that it was just going to end up renewing the brothers’ show after three episodes again anyway, so it might as well save everybody some time.) The series sees animated animals hold forth on the minutiae of life in the voices of various comedians, including several of Mark Duplass’ co-stars on The League—Nick Kroll and a very Rafi-esque Jason Mantzoukas both appear in the trailer, as does Silicon Valley’s Zach Woods. Animals is set to debut next year, with other planned guest vermin including Marc Maron, Rob Cordry, and Nathan Fielder of Nathan For You.
