Adult Swim will deliver twice the laughs all summer long in one of the best comedy blocks on cable, with the back-to-back premieres of new seasons of Childrens Hospital and NTSF:SD:SUV::, on Thursday night at Midnight and 12:15 a.m. (ET/PT) starting July 25th.
Created by Rob Corddry and featuring an all-star cast, Childrens Hospital was awarded the Emmy(R) in 2012 in the Outstanding Special Class: Short-Format Live-Action Entertainment Program category and won a Comedy Award in 2011 for best Sketch Comedy/Alternative Comedy Series. The most medically accurate hospital drama in the history of recorded media, Childrens Hospital returns for its fifth season to find the doctors relocated to a pediatric clinic on a U.S. Army base in Osaka, Japan. With the loss of recently murdered co-worker Dr. Blake Downs (Corddry) still fresh in their minds, the doctors find that life in Japan tests their solidarity in ways it has never been tested before. Conflicts arise with everyone - from the Army bureaucracy to the Japanese mob - in a series of new adventures that include a star-studded show for the troops, a wine tasting held during an operation, a chaotic "old fashioned" day where modern medicine is forbidden, and the closing of Ward 7 for patients' imaginary friends. The tension culminates in an explosive two-part season finale, in which the doctors are thrust onto the front lines of an enemy attack.
The show's creative team is led by executive producers/writers Rob Corddry (Hot Tub Time Machine,
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart), Jonathan Stern (Burning Love, Newsreaders) and David Wain (Role Models, Wet Hot American Summer), and stars Malin Akerman, Lake Bell, Rob Corddry, Zandy Hartig, Erinn Hayes, Rob Huebel, Brian Huskey, Ken Marino, Megan Mullally, and Henry Winkler. Childrens Hospital is produced by Abominable Pictures, The Corddry Company and Warner Bros. Televison Group's Studio 2.0, and is distributed by Warner Bros. Television.
After Childrens Hospital, fans can stay tuned for NTSF:SD:SUV::, the only police procedural parody show on television at 12:15 a.m. (ET/PT) on a weeknight. Creator and star Paul Scheer has lined up an amazing cast of talent for a third season of furious screaming, pregnant pauses, and even more civilian casualties than last season! This year, Trent Hauser (Scheer) and his elite terrorist fighting team will employ some of the riskiest methods they've ever attempted in order to bring down San Diegan terrorist scum, including surgically swapping faces with each other, kidnapping an alien, faking their own deaths, getting into the viral video biz, unfreezing a former 1960's radical, boarding Comic-Con Air, and heading into Little London, the most dangerous British District of San Diego (which was shot in the UK!) for a sweeping NTSF:SD:SUV:: two-part epic. Plus, the return of THE TIME ANGELS!
NTSF:SD:SUV::'s creative team is led by executive producers and writers Paul Scheer (The League, Human Giant) and Jonathan Stern (Burning Love, Newsreaders) and stars new cast member Karen Gillan (Dr. Who), Kate Mulgrew (Star Trek: Voyager), Brandon Johnson (Get Him to the Greek), June Diane Raphael (Burning Love), Rob Riggle (21 Jump Street), Martin Starr (Party Down), and Peter Serafinowicz (Shaun of the Dead) as S.A.M., the first sentient robot on television. NTSF:SD:SUV:: is produced by Abominable Pictures, Inc. Paul Scheer and Jonathan Stern (Burning Love, Newsreaders) are executive producers.
