FOX Announces Return Of “Let’s Be Real” With Four New Episodes Starting April 29th

FOX has announced an April 29th return date for the adult puppet series Let’s Be Real. The Robert Smigel(Triumph The Insult Comic Dog) produced series will have 4 x 30 minute episodes airing @ 9 pm ET with new episodes dealing with the ramifications of the 2020 Presidential election via topical sketches featuring puppets, celebrity cameos and remote pieces. Produced by Propagate, LET’S BE REAL is the first-ever collaboration between FOX Entertainment’s Scripted and Unscripted departments.

Robert has been teasing new episodes for a while now, and with the 2020 Presidential Election behind us, it will be interesting to see if the show continues to be Trump-centric or if the focus will be squared solely on Biden and Co. Even with Trump gone, there have been numerous politicians like Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert, and Matt Gaetz who have done more than enough to fill the jokes that Trump has left behind. From a press release:

“Following last fall’s comedy special, LET’S BE REAL returns to FOX this spring with all-new episodes beginning Thursday, April 29 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT). Executive-produced and written by Robert Smigel (Triumph The Insult Comic Dog), the new series will debut new puppets from the worlds of entertainment and politics, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, Governor Andrew Cuomo, Senator Ted Cruz, Kim Kardashian and LeBron James. Previously featured puppets, such as President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald J. Trump, Former Vice President Mike Pence and Kanye West, also will appear, as the satirical comedy series will cover politics and pop culture in 2021 through topical sketches, celebrity cameos and remote pieces.”

I don’t have a new clip, but here’s a clip from the election special that happened last year so you can get an idea with what we’re dealing with. Read our review of that special here.
