Hulu's Futurama Season 13 Trailer; A Man on the Inside Returns November 20 on Netflix

Futurama

Hulu has debuted the official trailer and key art for the upcoming season of Futurama. Season 13 lands on Hulu September 15 at 8PM ET with all 10 episodes. New episodes will premiere on FXX September 15 at 8PM with two episodes weekly. Bender is rampaging out of control! A volcano is about to explode! Fry confronts a rival for Leela's love! And Dr. Zoidberg is rising up to heaven?! The excitement might be too much! You've been warned... it's an all new season of Futurama!

Futurama premiered in 1999 and quickly gained a faithful following and critical acclaim, including two primetime Emmys for Outstanding Animated Program. Despite its far-future setting, the show is renowned for its satiric commentary on life in the present. The series follows Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a New York City pizza delivery boy, who accidentally freezes himself in 1999 and gets defrosted in the year 3000. In this astonishing New New York, he befriends hard-drinking robot Bender (John DiMaggio), and falls in love with cyclops Leela (Katey Sagal). The trio find work at the Planet Express Delivery Company, founded by Fry’s doddering descendant, Professor Hubert Farnsworth. Together with accountant Hermes Conrad, assistant Amy Wong, and alien lobster Dr. John Zoidberg, they embark on thrilling adventures that take them to every corner of the universe.

After its initial run on the Fox Broadcasting Network, a roller-coaster of cancellations and resurrections ensued. Four successful direct-to-DVD releases in 2007-2009 led to the show's rebirth on Comedy Central from 2010-2013. Then, after a brief ten-year freeze in the cryogenic chamber, Futurama emerged triumphantly as a streaming series for Hulu with a 20-episode order set to debut in 2023.




A Man on the Inside - Mary Steenburgen and Ted Danson

A Man on the Inside S2 premieres November 20 on Netflix. Ted Danson is A Man on the Inside and he's returning for an all new case. Here's your first look at Season 2 with new cast additions including Mary Steenburgen, Max Greenfield, Jason Mantzoukas, David Strathairn, Constance Marie and more.

Eager to take on another big undercover case, Charles Nieuwendyk (Ted Danson) gets his chance when a mysterious blackmailer targets Wheeler College president Jack Berenger (Max Greenfield), who enlists Charles to go undercover as a professor. Who's making these threats? Does it have something to do with the iconoclastic billionaire Brad Vinick (Gary Cole), a Wheeler graduate, and his proposed donation to the school? Charles finds no shortage of possible suspects, but his attention gets diverted by free-spirited music teacher Mona (Mary Steenburgen), whose zest for life awakens feelings he thought he'd buried after the passing of his wife. Is he ready to open his heart again at this stage in his life? And more importantly, has he fallen for the very criminal he's been sent to unmask?

Meanwhile, his daughter Emily (Mary Elizabeth Ellis) is inspired by the changes in her father and uncovers a long-ignored passion, while PI Julie (Lilah Richcreek Estrada) embarks on her own journey of growth as she reconnects with an important figure from her past.

From creator Michael Schur, A Man on the Inside is based on the documentary The Mole Agent, a 2021 Oscar(R) nominee for Best Documentary feature. 8 episodes have been ordered starring Ted Danson, Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Lilah Richcreek Estrada, Stephanie Beatriz, Gary Cole, Michaela Conlin, Lisa Gilroy, Max Greenfield, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Madison Hu, Sam Huntington, Jason Mantzoukas, Constance Marie, Linda Park, Mary Steenburgen, David Strathairn, Jill Talley.

The Studio

Matt Remick scores a win for Continental Studios! Following the widely celebrated premiere of The Studio, Apple TV+ announced that the critically acclaimed, star-studded hit series has landed a renewal for season two. Since its global debut, The Studio has struck a chord with cinephiles, fans and critics alike, and has been declared the "best new comedy of 2025," as well as "one of Hollywood's sharpest self-portraits in ages." Rogen stars as Matt Remick, the newly appointed head of embattled Continental Studios. As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps and breathes movies, it's the job Matt's been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.

The Studio assembles a star-studded ensemble cast led by Rogen, Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe Award winner Catherine O'Hara, Emmy Award nominee Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz and Chase Sui Wonders, with Emmy Award winning guest star Bryan Cranston. The series also features a lineup of cameos from some of Hollywood's most iconic actors, directors and producers throughout the season. The eighth episode of The Studio premieres this week on Apple TV+. In this week's new episode, "The Golden Globes," Matt tries to get Zoë Kravitz to thank him in her award acceptance speech.
