Ultra City Smiths Canceled After One Season On AMC+
Despite Alan Tudyk’s best efforts, Ultra City Smiths will NOT be getting a second season on AMC+. The stop-motion animated series from Stoopid Buddy Stoodios only ran for six episodes on the just launched streamer.
The creators of “Robot Chicken” present a mystery series using their unique animation style. The all-star cast of voice actors includes Julian Barratt, Terry O’Quinn, Luis Guzmán, Tim Heidecker, Sunita Mani, Tim Meadows, Bebe Neuwirth, John C. Reilly, Dax Shepard, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Debra Winger, Alia Shawkat and Kurtwood Smith. The plot involves two detectives who must contend with dangerous corruption as they investigate the mysterious disappearance of the last honest politician in their dark city; a group of unlikely suspects emerges — each with the last name of Smith.
Highly placed sources tell me that Stoopid Buddy Stoodios had attempted to re-shop the series elsewhere, but nobody was buying. Fortunately, I hear the studio IS working on a number of animated shorts for a Hulu holiday special, and Seth Green’s recently reacquired NFT series will soon be getting shopped.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
