Tubi, Fox Corporation’s free streaming service, has announced a diverse slate of exclusive digital-first creator series from the likes of Keith Lee, Bob The Drag Queen, Rock Squad, Sarah Dorothy Little and Brooklyn Queen, CelinaSpookyBoo, Sofi Manassyan and Brooke DeVard Ozaydinli, as well as cartoondom’s Sick Animation and ExplosmEntertainment.

Two new series are coming from adult animated comedy outfit Animation+ Studios, which last year brought the edgy, envelope-pushing shows The Cyanide & Happiness Show and Purgatony to the Tubi lineup:

Toon World Express is a mixed-media animated clip show created by Marc M., David Dore and Joey Souza of Cartoon Trap House that blends animation, collage and absurd comedy, and features an all-star roster of animated comedy creators, premiering on Tubi in Spring 2026.

America’s Next Top Cryptid is a series created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Adam Nusrallah and Connor Murphy of ExplosmEntertainment (Cyanide & Happiness) that follows a group of aspiring cryptids competing on a reality show to become the next urban legends, only to discover they may be trapped inside a sinister government experiment, premiering on Tubi in Fall 2026.

Netflix has given a series order to Dad’s House, an adult animated comedy series executive produced by Michael Cusack (Smiling Friends, YOLO), Dario Russo (Danger 5, Italian Spiderman, The Fox) and David Ashby (Danger 5, Italian Spiderman).

Cusack, Russ and Ashby also serve as showrunners and star in the voice cast, along with Felicity Ward (The Office, Wakefield, The Inbetweeners 2). The series hails from Princess Studios and Bento Box Entertainment.

Dad’s House is set in small-town suburban Australia, where 13-year-old child of divorce, Sean, spends every second weekend with his laidback, but well meaning dad, Ian. Cramming quality dad-time into a single weekend is already a tall order — but Ian has a remarkable gift for making it so much harder than it needs to be.

Now, we all know that there’s nothing children appreciate more than a fart joke. But — and this is a deep philosophical question — does that mean every animated film has to have one? It’s been a long time since I’ve read Orwell’s novella, but I don’t think there was a moment in which Napoleon (Seth Rogen), the Saddleback boar who becomes the villain of the piece after rising to power on the farm, lets loose a big wet one and exclaims: “This is the sound of freedom!”

Last Thursday, the Tokyo District Court ruled that 39-year-old Wataru Takeuchi was guilty of violating Japanese law that prohibits the creation of “a new work by making creative modifications to the original while preserving its essential characteristics.” Takeuchi worked as administrator of a website that published lengthy, spoiler-heavy descriptions from popular movies and series. And two of Takeuchi’s “articles” — one about Godzilla Minus One and another focused on the Overlord anime adaptation — prompted Toho (owner of the Godzilla) and Kadokawa Shoten (the publisher behind Overlord) to file joint lawsuits through the Content Overseas Distribution Association (CODA).

I'm sick and TIRED of the fakeness ESPECIALLY around childhood icons like if something actually sucked say so don't just pretend it was good. The #HannahMontana special sucked ass and nobody wants to call it out on it except for maybe a few select people who probably are just mad that some cast members were missing when in fact the real issue is it was supposed to be a reboot sitcom not just some interview. just saying
