Exclusive: Halloween Comes Early For Duncanville’s Season Two Finale

Duncanville’s Season 2 finale airs this coming Monday and if you’re like me you are already in a Halloween mood. And how can you not be? Target, Walmart, and others are already stocking candy on the shelves for the yearly festivities, and the die-hard weenies are already planning their house decorations. So anyone thinking Duncanville is running a Halloween episode a bit too early, die-hards will feel right at home with this one for “Witch Day 2”.

This Monday night, at the annual Witch Day Festival, Kimberly mixes up a magic witch potion that actually works, causing Jing to become possessed. Duncan and his friends enter a haunted Circuit City and Jack tries again to finally win Annie a stuffed animal at the milk bottle toss in the all-new “Witch Day 2” season finale episode of DUNCANVILLE airing Monday, Aug. 30 (9:31-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

 

Synopsis:

From Emmy Award and Golden Globe winner Amy Poehler and Emmy Award winners Mike and Julie Scully, comes DUNCANVILLE, an animated family comedy centered around a spectacularly average 15-year-old boy, his family and friends. In the series, DUNCAN (Poehler) can see adulthood on the horizon: money, freedom, cars, girls…but the reality is more like: always being broke, driving with your mom sitting shotgun and babysitting your little sister.

Duncan’s mom, ANNIE (Poehler), a parking enforcement officer who dreams of someday being a detective, lives in perpetual fear that her teenage son is one bad decision away from ruining his life and will do anything to stop him from doing so. Duncan’s father, JACK (Emmy Award winner Ty Burrell), husband to Annie, is a classic-rock-obsessed plumber who’s determined to be a better dad than the one he had. He’s constantly posting wonderful things about his family on Facebook and annoyed that his kids won’t friend him.

Duncan’s 12-year-old sister, KIMBERLY (Riki Lindhome), is awkward, emotional and can hold grudges forever, while waiting patiently for revenge. She’s all emotions all the time and nobody’s problems are bigger than hers. JING (Joy Osmanski), Duncan’s six-year-old sister, likes to shout “Watch me!” before executing the world’s slowest cartwheel.

Duncan hangs with his friend and class clown, BEX (Betsy Sodaro), his stylish and swaggy friend, YANGZI (Yassir Lester), and his reckless, unsupervised friend, WOLF (Zach Cherry). MIA (Emmy Award nominee Rashida Jones) is Duncan’s on-again, off-again crush, who never met a cause to which she wouldn’t dedicate her life; and MR. MITCH (Golden Globe nominee Wiz Khalifa), is their cool teacher/guidance counselor/occasional school nurse.

The adventures continue in the Season Two premiere of DUNCANVILLE when the Harris family takes its first vacation. The episode features a “Parks and Recreation” reunion, as guest voices Adam Scott, Aubrey Plaza, Retta and Nick Offerman join Poehler and Jones. Finn Wolfhard (“Stranger Things”, “It”) also guest-voices in the premiere. Other storylines in the new season include Duncan saying the one thing no kid should ever say to their dad, which shifts their power dynamic; Duncan and Kimberly being sent to therapy camp; Jing and Jack starting a child birthday band together (guest-voice appearance by Stephen King); and Duncan and Annie racing stock cars.

DUNCANVILLE is produced by 20th Television Animation; Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group; and FOX Entertainment. Mike Scully, Julie Scully and Amy Poehler co-created and executive-produce the series with executive producer Dave Becky.
