Peacock Developing Best Buds Animated Comedy From King of the Hill/Rick and Morty/Human Resources Producers

I literally wrote today how Rick and Morty’s “One Crew over the Crewcoo’s Morty” was a parody of the heist trope that Star Trek: Lower Decks essentially used in the show’s third season premiere and here we are talking about the writer of that episode, Caitie Delaney.

Caitie is teaming up with Bandera Entertainment (Mike Judge/Greg Daniels) and Caleb Hearon (Human Resources) to develop a new animated comedy for Peacock called Best Buds. Joe Bennett is also a producer for the series.

According to THR who was the first to break the story, Best Buds centers on Calvin, who works at his family-owned flower shop (called Best Buds), the “crown jewel of the local strip mall.” When his best friend, Evelyn, comes back to town after dropping out of grad school, he gets her a job at the shop and they begin a mission to bring the place out of the 1980s and into the present.
