‘Long Story Short’ From ‘BoJack Horseman’ Creator Lands Season 2 Renewal Ahead of Series Premiere
BoJack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg has a new animated Netflix comedy, and Long Story Short is here to stay — for a little while at least.
On Thursday, Long Story Short earned an early season two renewal, announced ahead of the series premiere; Netflix also release season one’s trailer.
Long Story Short follows 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,” the logline reads.
The cast includes Lisa Edelstein as Naomi Schwartz, Paul Reiser as Elliott Cooper, Ben Feldman as Avi Schwooper, Abbi Jacobson as Shira Schwooper, Max Greenfield as Yoshi Schwooper, Angelique Cabral as Jen, Nicole Byer as Kendra Hooper and recurring guests Dave Franco as Danny Wegbreit and Michaela Dietz as Hannah Schwooper.
