Matt Maiellaro, one of the co-creators of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, is developing a new animated comedy for FX, and Eastbound & Down’s Danny McBride has signed on to voice a character. The show’s about “a man recently released from prison,” which, yeah, is incredibly open-ended (was he released from prison a changed man who’s devoted his life to cooking free burritos for the homeless? Is he vengeful and determined to set his former cellmates free? Was he in prison for decades and now is terrified of the outside world like Brooks in The Shawshank Redemption?). But the track record of the people involved, plus FX’s animation hot streak with Archer and the new Unsupervised, gives it promise enough.
