Netflix releases bawdy trailer for intergalactic animated comedy Farzar

Netflix’s Farzar trailer opens with a prescient (and gleefully self aware) question: “Is this gonna be more like Futurama or Rick And Morty?” To that, Farzar’s ruler Renzo (Lance Reddick) has a simple response: “Shut the fuck up.”

The history of the planet, according to unreliable narrator Renzo, goes like this: “This is Farzar. It was a peaceful planet before the evil aliens invaded. But Renzo protected his people from the aliens and their diabolical leader Bazarack. …Then Renzo married queen Flammy, totally for love, not just to gain power, even though she’s a slightly older woman.”

But Renzo’s son Prince Fichael (Dana Snyder) may soon discover that “all is not what it seems and he may be living a lie.” Fiachel believes it’s his “destiny to rid this planet of evil,” so his dad assigns him a “quote-unquote team” to help him do so. Leaving their domed human city, the ragtag squad will find more than just “evil aliens that want to kill and/or eat them,” according to the series’ synopsis, per Deadline.
