It Looks Like Mitch Hurwitz’s Fox Cartoon Is Going To Series!!
|
“Simpsons” writer-producers Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein have joined the staff of Mitch Hurwitz’ animated “Sit Down, Shut Up.” Because "Arrested Development" mastermind Hurwitz wrote the pilot, the move suggests the project will be announced as a series at Fox’s “upfront” in a little more than two weeks.
Variety’s story on the matter indicates that Oakley and Weinstein will serve as the series’ showrunners. Their other credits include “Mission Hill” and “The Mullets.”
For those unaware, Variety describes the plot:
"Sit Down, Shut Up" is based on a live-action sitcom from Australia. The animated U.S. version revolves around the lives of seven staff members at a dysfunctional high school in a small northeastern fishing town. Action centers on faculty members, as their egos and personal agendas trump the students' needs.
Read all of Variety’s story on the matter here.
