Thanks David. Looking forward to both of Paul Fenech’s work and maybe even Rick Donald’s new project (surely it can’t be any worse then Australia’s Sexist Tradie?)
What’s going on with new episodes of American Dad? the latest season has one episode left in America but hasn’t even started here. Will AD be the same as Family Guy airing episodes on Disney+ a couple of weeks after FTA?
7flix must not have much going on if they are mentioning Futurama that hasn’t had any new episodes in 8 years. Disney+ should bring back new Futurama it’s still probably the best animated show of all time up there with Rick and Morty. A new season might do well on Disney.
