WonderCon and San Diego Comic-Con are both going digital for 2021, and Patton Oswalt has put out a note that 3/6 is the last day to get your questions in concerning the WonderCon 2021 panel for his upcoming adult animated series for Hulu, M.O.D.O.K. Here is how you can submit your questions.

Marvel’s M.O.D.O.K., is an upcoming American stop motion and adult animated streaming television series created for Hulu by Jordan Blum and Patton Oswalt, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. The series was produced by Marvel Studios through Marvel Television and Marvel Animation, with Blum serving as showrunner. Stop-motion animation for the series is provided by Stoopid Buddy Stoodios.

Cast and crew for FOX’s The Great North took part in a Q&A panel at this year’s TCA 2021 where we got to hear everything about the new series that is set to see it’s first season finale on May 16th (with Family Guy). Among the highlights (other than the behind-the-scenes clip of Housebroken which is slated to premiere this May) were insights and anecdotes from The Great North’s cast which included Alanis Morissette, Megan Mullaly, Will Forte, Jenny Slate, Dulce Sloan, Aparna Nuncherla, Paul Rust, and the Molyneux sisters who created the series.

Having just coming off of working with Bob’s Burgers for so many seasons, Wendy and Lizzie Molyneux wanted to keep the same kind of “good-hearted comedy” vibe that the aforementioned series had but still having some gross out moments, “sometimes edgy stuff is just how gross can they make it,” says Jenny Slate “there’s no bitterness on our show”, though Wendy notes that there are still strict network standards & practices, Lizzie says, “There’s nowhere else we’d rather be in animation”.  The Great North producers also had a lot of say into their characters, for example, Dulce Sloan gave notes about her character’s physique, “She’s not a token character, she’s made a part of the family”.

The Great North has an all-new episode premiering this Sunday @ 830 pm ET/PT only on FOX.

Synopsis:

Following the Alaskan adventures of the Tobin family, as a single dad, Beef, does his best to keep his weird bunch of kids close — especially his only daughter, Judy, whose artistic dreams lead her away from the family fishing boat and into the glamorous world of the local mall. Rounding out the family are Judy’s older brother, Wolf, and his fiancé, Honeybee, her middle brother, Ham, and 10-year-old-going-on-50 little brother, Moon. While their mother is not in the picture, Judy seeks guidance from her new boss, Alyson, and her imaginary friend, Alanis Morissette, who appears to her in the northern lights.
