    In a surprise move, Adult Swim has picked up Tuca & Bertie for a season 2.
    The Hollywood Reporter writes:
    Tuca and Bertie are back.

    In the second deal of its kind, a linear network has revived a Netflix original series. In this case, WarnerMedia-backed Adult Swim has revived the animated comedy from creator Lisa Hanawalt for a second season nearly a year after the first was shockingly canceled by the streamer.

    Adult Swim will bring the second season of the series from Tornante Co. in 2021 with an option for additional seasons. Tuca and Bertie was canceled after one season at Netflix despite rave reviews for the show and a voice cast featuring breakout comedians Tiffany Haddish and Ali Wong. Both, along with co-star Steven Yeun, will return for season two.

    “I’ve been a fan of Adult Swim shows since my teens, so I’m thrilled to bring my beloved fowl to the party and be a new voice for a fresh decade of absurd, irreverent, yet heartwarming adult animation,” Hanawalt said.

    Tuca and Bertie is the second Netflix original series to find a new home after cancellation. Scripted multicamera comedy One Day at a Time landed at Viacom-owned Pop following an extensive deal-making process with producers Sony TV and Netflix. Sources say Netflix was also involved in the deal for Tuca and Bertie and likely had to sign off on a new pact at a linear network.

    Wow, Adult Swim is really making me happy lately. I mean, I like Rick & Morty as much as the next (normal) person, but also Joe Pera Talks With You is a sheer delight, and I wasn't ever expecting to get more T&B.

    I miss when adult swim would have a new epsiode of one of their original animated shows basically every single night.

    It was required viewing with my roommates back in college.

    I am grateful to Adult Swim but I hope this doesn't mean fewer titties

    Yeah going AS may mean less bouncin' building tiddies and plant tiddies and like, cloud tiddies and I dunno man, that's kind of a big part of the show.

    I'm taking a little comfort in the fact that Rick & Morty have been slinging f-bombs lately. I know boobs (even animated) are still in another class of potentially offensive, but... come on, the place is called "Adult Swim."

    I'm finally watching The Witcher and I just watched episode 3 and
    haha fuck Ciri is the striga huh, what a good show this has been so far. I'm glad I was tuned in to the fact that the show jumped around in time while simultaneously avoiding any spoilers or plot points at all, it's made it fun to watch but not frustrating.

    If they had more clearly delineated when everything was happening in relation to everything else, or if there was a thematic/narrative reason for the muddle, OR if it had led to anything, it could've been fine

    As is, it's just needlessly confusing and pointless and self-indulgent

    Mel wants to spy on the demons, and they find a spell to accomplish this. It'll turn her into a fly. The only catch is, it's a curse, and they don't have time to research how to break the curse

    her response? They'll just have to figure it out on the fly.

    Ok fine but I'm only three episodes in! I'm keeping my theories!

    Edit: I'll be ok if it isn't as clever as it seems at first, I'm enjoying it.

    That seems like a fair compromise.

    I think this week's episode was a little bit weak

    Not bad but some of the gags felt.. lazier than the show normally goes?
    The troll being a troll, haha Elvis is a vampire, etc.

    it was a little weak but also Nick Kroll is probably the worst character in the show so that didnt help
