Birdgirl, the new spin-off to Harvey Birdman, officially kicked off as Adult Swim’s latest series and it arrived as a spunky and very welcome addition to the list of things to keep an eye while still in lockdown.

Whether you’re a fan/acquainted with Harvey Birdman or not, Birdgirl leading the charge to save the world, but also doubling as the CEO of Sebben & Sebben is a splendid, over-the-top, yet subversive and timely adult animated action/adventure series. Paget Brewster‘s Birdgirl is undeniably charming as is the supporting cast of Rob Delaney, Kether Donohue, John Doman, Negin Farsad, Tony Hale, and Lorelei Ramirez. There’s also just a lovely tinge of heart to the show, at least from this pilot that you can stream on YouTube at your convenience, that is part of doing a 2021 spin-off of the entertainingly absurd Harvey Birdman.

Go see it all for yourself in Birdgirl’s pilot here, then look for new episodes to air on Adult Swim on Sundays at midnight.

If you were ever a fan of Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, Adult Swim has got the spin-off that is just for you. Even if you’re not even acquainted with Harvey Birdman or any of those oblique, adult animated takes on the superhero cartoons of old, Birdgirl still looks pretty damn fun.

Just see for yourself with this first look here

The one and only Paget Brewster voices Birdgirl leading of a cast that includes such comedy favorites as Sonia Denis, Lorelei Ramirez, Rob Delaney, Negin Farsad, Tony Hale, Kether Donohue, and more.

If this is at all up your alley, look for the premiere of Birdgirl to happen on Apr. 4th at Midnight on Adult Swim.

If there’s a takeaway from the trailer from the brand new season of Comedy Central’s Another Period, it’s probably to never challenge the outrageously wealthy to be more outrageous, especially in The Gilded Age.

The Bellacourts will see your challenge for this second season and raise you as much havoc as they can afford and then some as they probably have some more money stashed away somewhere or can marry into more wealth.

See for yourself in the season two trailer here.

Look for the series premiere in two weeks on Wednesday, June 15th at 10PM on Comedy Central.

(via TV Line)

With Community’s return for a season 6 on Yahoo being only a couple of months away, there’s only more anticipation building over the series that has defied expectations at every turn.

On top of the miracle that was pulled off by making it to its sixth season (and hopefully a movie), Community has added two new cast members in Paget Brewster, who we’d hope you be familiar with from a guest role in Community as well as her regular role in The Thrilling Adventure Hour, and Keith David who has been in a vast myriad of things, but we’ll never forget for his disturbing role in Requiem For a Dream.

We’re into this additions especially since Yvette Nicole Brown has left Community.
