It’s not often that Netflix would host Comic-Con panels for its adult animation lineup, but here we are, months later after San Diego featured a Disenchantment panel, New York’s gonna get a Netflix animation panel as well. This time around, it’s for the second season of Big Mouth slated to premiere on October 5th for the world’s largest streaming service.

For those that don’t know, Big Mouth follows 7th grade best friends Nick Birch and Andrew Glouberman as they navigate their way through puberty, masturbation, and sexual arousal. Acting as sex-based shoulder angels are the hormone monsters; Maurice (who pesters Andrew and occasionally Nick and Jay, and strongly resembles Pan), and Connie (who pesters Jessi and occasionally Missy). Throughout the series, the kids interact with people and objects who are personified in one way or another and offer helpful, albeit confusing, advice in their puberty-filled lives including the ghost of Duke Ellington, a French-accented Statue of Liberty, a pillow capable of getting pregnant, and even Jessi’s own vagina.
Big Mouth is an American adult animated sitcom created by Nick Kroll, Andrew Goldberg, Mark Levin, and Jennifer Flackett based on Kroll and Goldberg’s tweenage years growing up in Westchester County, New York, with Kroll voicing his fictional self.
