Dan Harmon’s upcoming animated series Krapopolis hasn’t even been released yet, but Fox must be pretty happy with what they’ve seen from it because they just renewed it for a third season. It’s rare for a network to do something like this, so they must be impressed and confident in it.

Krapopolis is set in mythical ancient Greece and tells the story of “a dysfunctional family of humans, gods and monsters that try their hand at running the world’s first cities – without trying to kill each other, that is.”

It was also announced that the network moved the debut to the 2023-24 season. The series was originally supposed to premiere in May. Michael Thorn, President of Scripted Programming at Fox, said in a statement: “The 2023-24 season is the perfect launching pad for this highly anticipated and very funny animated comedy, complete with multiple seasons of epic laughs for fans. The more we see from production, the more excited we are about their creativity, story arcs, flawless execution, brilliant voice cast, and ability to pump out episode after episode of astonishing events and outrageous, unexpected hilarity.”

The series features the voices of Richard Ayoade, Hannah Waddingham, Matt Berry, Pam Murphy and Duncan Trussell.

Ayoade voices Tyrannis, “the mortal son of a goddess. He’s the benevolent King of Krapopolis, trying to make do in a city that lives up to its name.”

Waddingham plays Deliria, Tyrannis’ mother, “goddess of self-destruction and questionable choices. Within her extended Olympian family – forged in patricide and infidelity – she’s known as the trashy one.”

Berry is Shlub, Tyrannis’ father, “a mantitaur – half centaur (horse + human), half manticore (lion + human + scorpion). He is oversexed and underemployed, claims to be an artist and has literally never paid for anything, in any sense of that word, for his entire life.”

Murphy voices Stupendous, T”yrannis’ half-sister, daughter of Deliria and a cyclops.”

Trussell plays Hippocampus, “Tyrannis’ half-brother, offspring of Shlub and a mermaid, and, obviously, a hot mess, biologically speaking.”

The voice cast of the series also includes Dove Cameron, Tara Strong and Alanna Ubach are recurring, with Susan Sarandon, Will Forte, Michael Urie, Jane Lynch, Amber Stevens West, Yvette Nicole Brown and Dave Franco as guest stars.
