Fox Cancels Acclaimed Animated Series 'The Great North' After 5 Seasons
4 Oct
Summary
- Fox has decided to end the animated series "The Great North" after 5 seasons.
- The show was created by Loren Bouchard and executive produced by Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin.
- The network praised the "amazing cast and crew" and thanked them for the "5 hilarious seasons" of the show.
In a surprising move, Fox has revealed that it will be ending the animated series "The Great North" after 5 seasons on the air. The decision comes just a few months after the network unveiled its programming slate for the 2025-26 season, with the show notably absent from the lineup.
"The Great North" was created by Loren Bouchard, the executive producer behind the popular series "Bob's Burgers," and was executive produced by Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin. The show followed the Alaskan adventures of the Tobin family, led by single dad Beef, as they navigated the ups and downs of life in the remote northern region.
In a statement, Fox's president of television, Michael Thorn, expressed the network's gratitude for the "amazing cast and crew" who brought the series to life over the past 5 hilarious seasons. While the decision to cancel the show is undoubtedly disappointing for fans, Thorn's words suggest that the network valued the creative team's efforts and the unique perspective the show offered.
As "The Great North" comes to an end, viewers will no doubt miss the quirky characters, heartwarming family dynamics, and the show's ability to blend humor and poignancy in its portrayal of life in the Alaskan wilderness. The cancellation marks the end of an era for the "Animation Domination" lineup on Fox, but the legacy of "The Great North" is sure to live on in the memories of those who enjoyed its charming and offbeat take on the modern American family.
