Fox has released the trailer for Dan Harmon’s new animated series Krapopolis. The new series from the co-creator of Rick and Morty is set in mythical ancient Greece, and it features a dysfunctional family of humans, gods, and monsters trying to run a city at the dawn of civilization. The trailer for Krapopolis introduces us to the members of this dysfunctional family, with King Tyrannis (voiced by Richard Ayoade) attempting to lead a city with a less-than-appealing name properly. We will get an even better look at Tyrannis and his whacky family when Krapopolis has its two-episode premiere on September 24th, right after the NFL’s doubleheader.

The Krapopolis trailer gives us a more in-depth look at the show’s family. This includes the mortal king’s trashy mother Deliria (Hannah Waddingham), the goddess of self-destruction and questionable choices. Matt Berry voices Tyrannis’ oversexed and childish father Shlub. The character is a mantitaur, meaning he is half centaur (horse/human) and half manticore (lion/human/scorpion). Pam Murphy voices the king’s half-sister Stupendous, who Deliria conceived with a cyclops. Finally, Duncan Trussell provides the voice for Hippocampus, Tyrannis’ paternal half-brother produced by Shlub and a mermaid.
Alanna Ubach will have a recurring role in the series. Guest stars will include Susan Sarandon, Will Forte, Michael Urie, Jane Lynch, Amber Stevens West, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Dave Franco.
Along with Rick and Morty (which he co-created with Justin Roiland), Dan Harmon is known for creating the hit sitcom Community and the comedy podcast Harmontown.
Dan Harmon’s new series Krapopolis has already set to have three seasons. Follwing it’s two-episode premiere on September 24th, Krapopolis will air as part of Fox’s animation domination. It will air at 8:30 PM after The Simpsons and before Bob’s Burgers.
