MARRIED... WITH CHILDREN Animated Series in Development with the Original Cast

Here’s a fun bit of unexpected news! The classic 1990s comedy series Married… with Children is making a comeback as an animated series and the cast of the original series are set to reprise their roles. That cast includes Katey Sagal, Ed O’Neill, Christina Applegate, and David Faustino.

The series is currently being pitched to networks and streamers, and there’s a lot of strong interest in picking it up. The show could end up landing at Fox, Hulu or Peacock.

The new series is being written by Family Guy executive producer Alex Carter, who also serves as showrunner. Apparently, Sony Pictures Television, has been working on the animated project for over a year and closed deals with the original cast before shopping it around.

Married… with Children ran for 11 seasons from 1987 to 1997, and it was Fox’s signature series. It was the first original scripted series on the network, and it helped build Fox and establish its edgy comedy brand.

I grew up watching this show, and I revisited it a few years ago. It’s just a fun comed,y and It’ll be interesting to see how this animated series turns out! Hopefully, it ends up being as funny as the original series was.
