News: Simpsons Duo Set To Exec Produce New Animated Comedy

Blog-Simpsons-Veterans.jpg

Sit Down, Shut Up, the upcoming animated Mitch Hurwitz comedy from Fox, has just acquired two new cherries atop it's already celeb-filled cake, with Simpsons veterans Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein signing on to Executive Produce, according to Variety. "Sit Down, Shut Up" is based on a live-action sitcom from Australia. The animated U.S. version revolves around the lives of seven staff members at a dysfunctional high school in a small northeastern fishing town. Action centers on faculty members, as their egos and personal agendas trump the students' needs.
"It's extremely character based, like 'Arrested Development,' and has different rhythms than other animated shows like 'The Simpsons' or 'King of the Hill,'"

With a description like that, how could this show lose? Ponder that as you watch full episodes of the duo's other work on The Simpsons, here on Fancast.
