Seth Rogen Partner Evan Goldberg Teasing Fully Canadian R-Rated Animated Comedy

Corner Gas Animated is a watershed moment in adult animation in Canada. After four critically acclaimed and award-winning seasons, Corner Gas Animated has embarked on it’s fourth and final season airing Monday nights on CTV. Earlier this year we noted Adult Swim Canada has also ordered a new adult animated series produced in Canada called Psi-Cops, but it sounds like Point Grey Pictures, the producing arm of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, may be jockeying to produce an adult animated comedy series of their own that would also be very Canadian, a trend that hopefully is growing. In a new interview, Evan had this to say:

We have a very Canadian TV show idea we’re working on right now that we haven’t yet cracked, but we’re always fiddling with different purely Canadian things. The one I’m trying to make happen is an R-rated animated comedy series. We haven’t pitched it yet, but it’s uber-Canadian. I want to do it because there are so many Canadian comedians, and you could get the funniest people on Earth to do a low-commitment animated series.

Evan co-wrote the very Canadian live-action film Goon which is a masterpiece of a hockey movie and with Schitt’s Creek making all sorts of noise the last couple of years here in America, I’m hoping Evan and Seth can also cross the Northern border and bring back some great content. In the meantime, Seth Rogen is getting ready to co-star in an adult animated series for HBO MAX called Santa Inc that you can read more about here.
