Mating Season: New Adult Animated Series from Big Mouth Creators as Final Season Approaches

Announced by the creators of “Big Mouth”, a fresh adult animated series entitled “Mating Season” has been unveiled, set to premiere in 2021. The original show, launched in 2017, boasts Nick Kroll as its primary voice actor, with an ensemble cast that includes John Mulaney, Jessi Klein, Jason Mantzoukas, Maya Rudolph (twice mentioned for emphasis), Fred Armisen, Jordan Peele, Andrew Rannells, Jenny Slate, and Ayo Edebiri. The series was co-created by Kroll, Mark Levin, Jennifer Flackett, and Andrew Goldberg.

As per Netflix, the creators of “Big Mouth” have officially announced their upcoming adult animated series titled “Mating Season.” This new series centers around a tale about mature adults, who just so happen to be animals, and they’re also cartoons. The original four creators behind “Big Mouth” will once again take the helm as conceptualists for this series, and they will also serve as executive producers through Brutus Pink. Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina have also been added as executive producers. Netflix has already unveiled a first-look image of “Mating Season,” which you can see below:

John Derderian, Vice President of Animation Series at Netflix, made the following comment regarding the series “Mating Season”:

Big Mouth blazed a trail in adult animation, combining heart, laughter, and utter pandemonium as they transformed the awkwardness of adolescence into something relatable and profoundly human. Collaborating with Nick Kroll and the geniuses at Brutus Pink for eight seasons has been an unforgettable experience. With Mating Season, they’re set to apply that daring, side-splitting ingenuity to the animal kingdom. We can hardly wait to embark on this new adventure alongside them!

What This Means For The Big Mouth Team

Big Mouth Is Entering Its Final Season

In addition to announcing the upcoming release of “Mating Season”, Netflix has revealed some exciting news about the “Big Mouth” team. They’re planning a nationwide tour over the next few weeks, where they will screen some episodes from the final season 8 and release exclusive merchandise. It appears that Netflix is putting considerable effort into promoting their series, as this will be the last season of “Big Mouth”. This timing makes the announcement of “Mating Season” quite significant, as it follows closely behind the final season of “Big Mouth”.

In the fresh artwork for “Mating Season,” we get a glimpse into the physical appearance of the show’s characters. Although they will adopt animal shapes, with the main characters being a raccoon, a bear, a fox, and a deer, the series will portray these characters as anthropomorphic. For instance, all four principal characters are depicted walking on two legs. The deer is posed with one arm resting on its hip, showcasing its human-like curvaceous figure. At this point, not much plot information has been revealed about “Mating Season,” but the initial art provides a hint of its mature theme.

Our Take On Mating Season

It Will Be Interesting To Contrast The Show With Big Mouth

I find myself curious about the way the production team is linking “Mating Season” with “Big Mouth.” Brutus Pink pointed out that “Big Mouth” narrates “coming-of-age tales” while “Mating Season” will move on to “stories of fully grown individuals.” This shift from “Big Mouth” promises to be engaging, as the upcoming Netflix series will explore adulthood through an ensemble that isn’t human. Keeping Brutus Pink’s unique animated style, it will be fascinating to observe how the tones of “Big Mouth” evolve and adapt for “Mating Season.
