Long Story Short

Long Story Short premieres August 22 and has now just been picked up for season two before it even premieres. Quote from creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg: "Wow!! A season two?! And season one hasn't even come out yet! It must be a REALLY good show. I can't wait to watch it when it premieres on Netflix, Friday, August 22! Let's all do that!"

Long Story Short is an animated comedy from the creator of BoJack Horseman about one family, over time. Jumping through the years, we follow the Schwooper siblings from childhood to adulthood and back again, chronicling their triumphs, disappointments, joys, and compromises. 10 episodes will air for season one.

Starring Lisa Edelstein (Naomi Schwartz), Paul Reiser (Elliott Cooper), Ben Feldman (Avi Schwooper), Abbi Jacobson (Shira Schwooper), Max Greenfield (Yoshi Schwooper), Angelique Cabral (Jen), Nicole Byer (Kendra Hooper), Dave Franco (Danny Wegbreit) and Michaela Dietz (Hannah Schwooper).




Wayward

Welcome to Tall Pines. We think you'll be very happy here. Wayward, starring Mae Martin & Toni Collette, premieres September 25, only on Netflix. After an escape attempt from an academy for "troubled teens", two students join forces with a newly local police officer, unearthing the town's dark and deeply rooted secrets. Wayward stars Mae Martin, Sarah Gadon, Sydney Topliffe, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Brandon Jay McLaren, and Toni Collette. Netflix released a teaser trailer and first look images for the 8 episode limited series, Wayward.

Nothing is what it seems in Tall Pines. After an escape attempt from an academy for "troubled teens", two students join forces with a newly local police officer, unearthing the town's dark and deeply rooted secrets. In the picture-perfect town of Tall Pines, sinister secrets lurk behind every closed door. Not long after police officer Alex Dempsey (Mae Martin) and his pregnant wife Laura (Sarah Gadon) move into their new home, he connects with two students Abbie (Sydney Topliffe) and Leila (Alyvia Alyn Lind) from the local school for "troubled teens" who are desperate to escape and could be the key to unearthing everything rotten in the town. As Alex begins investigating a series of unusual incidents, he suspects that Evelyn (Toni Collette), the school's mysterious leader, might be at the center of all the problems.

Created by Mae Martin, Wayward is a thrilling and genre-bending limited series about the eternal struggle between one generation and the next, what happens when friendship and loyalty are put to the ultimate test, and how buried truths always find a way of coming to the surface.
