Disenchantment, Matt Groening’s long-gestating adult animated comedy fantasy series for Netflix, is moving forward with an official 20-episode order. The series from The Simpsons creator and Futurama creator will premiere in 2018, with the 20 episodes airing over two seasons of 10 episodes each.

Abbi Jacobson, Nat Faxon and Eric Andre headline the voice cast of Disenchantment. Set in the crumbling medieval kingdom of Dreamland, the series will follow the misadventures of hard-drinking young princess Bean (Jacobson), her feisty elf companion Elfo (Faxon), and her personal demon Luci (Andre). Along the way, the oddball trio will encounter ogres, sprites, harpies, imps, trolls, walruses, and lots of human fools. Also voicing characters are John DiMaggio, Billy West, Maurice LaMarche, Tress MacNeille, David Herman, Matt Berry, Jeny Batten, Rich Fulcher, Noel Fielding and Lucy Montgomery.

“Ultimately,” says Groening, “Disenchantment will be about life and death, love and sex, and how to keep laughing in a world full of suffering and idiots, despite what the elders and wizards and other jerks tell you.”

Disenchantment is produced by The ULULU Company for Netflix, with Groening and Josh Weinstein (The Simpsons, Futurama) serving as executive producers. Animation is being done by Rough Draft Studios (Futurama).

Netflix has some pretty good original cartoons. Hopefully this continues the trend.

The article says it will have Groening's "trademark animation style," so I believe so.

Im really not interested at all in the medieval setting but im a fan of that Nat dude...makes me laugh. And Groening is batting a hundred so I'd be dumb to not give it a chance.

Agreed on the supporting cast, but I'm not familiar with any of the main actors.

adult shows were pretty good before the writers all got the dumb idea that "social commentary" and edginess were good replacements for good writing and humor

You mean back when the show would end with "I've learned something today" which was generally political or social commentary?
