The popular adult animated comedy series, “Big Mouth,” may be coming to an end, but the creative team behind the show is not slowing down. According to Variety, Netflix has greenlit a new series titled “Mating Season” from Brutus Pink, the production company responsible for “Big Mouth.” Set to premiere in 2026, “Mating Season” takes place in the animal world and follows a cast of bears, raccoons, deer, foxes, and other forest creatures as they navigate love, relationships, and the universal quest for a partner.
John Derderian, Netflix’s vice president of animation series, praised the groundbreaking nature of “Big Mouth” and expressed excitement for the upcoming project. He commended the team for their ability to infuse humor, heart, and chaos into the portrayal of adolescence. With “Mating Season,” the creators aim to bring the same bold and hilarious creativity to the animal kingdom, promising a new chapter of entertainment.
The brains behind “Mating Season” include Mark Levin, Jennifer Flackett, Andrew Goldberg, and Nick Kroll, who serve as creators and executive producers. Additionally, Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina will take on executive producer roles for Titmouse, contributing to the show’s development.
After eight successful seasons of storytelling centered around adolescence, the Brutus Pink team is eager to explore the lives of grown-up characters, albeit in the form of animated animals. The transition from coming-of-age tales to adult themes promises a fresh and entertaining perspective for viewers.
As fans anticipate the final season of “Big Mouth,” scheduled for release on May 23, the show’s creators are embarking on a unique promotional tour. Dubbed the “Big Mouth Swallows America Farewell Tour,” the event will feature screenings of new episodes and exclusive merchandise. Audiences across the country can secure tickets for the tour, a special opportunity to preview the concluding season before its global debut.
The creators of Brutus Pink express their enthusiasm for taking the show on the road, sharing their excitement for engaging with fans and offering a sneak peek at the culmination of “Big Mouth.” By driving a yellow van from city to city, the team aims to celebrate the series’ success and connect with audiences nationwide.
As “Big Mouth” prepares to bid farewell, the announcement of “Mating Season” signals a continuation of creative storytelling and humor from the talented minds at Brutus Pink. Fans can look forward to a new era of animated entertainment that promises to be just as bold and hilarious as its predecessor.
