Adult Swim Announces 3 New Series

Adult Swim, which held its upfront event last night in New York, announced three new series and several projects in development.

New original series:
THE HEART, SHE HOLLER
The Heart, She Holler is a new live-action soap opera about folk who ain’t never used soap or seen an opera.  It’s a satire on the emotional Hee-Hawification of America, set in a town so inbred, the folks have become almost supernaturally wrong. The series is produced by PFFR, and stars Patton Oswalt and Heather Lawless. The Heart, She Holler premieres this fall on Adult Swim.

CHINA, IL
Frank and Steve Smith are brothers who teach in the history department of a state university in China, Illinois. They also happen to be legends in their own minds who will often sacrifice facts, lessons and syllabi for the sake of being awesome.  Created by Brad Neely, executive produced by Brad Neely (Creased Comics) and Daniel Weidenfeld and produced by Titmouse, Inc. (Metalocalypse), China, IL premieres this fall on Adult Swim.

TIGHT BROS
Tight Bros is a new animated comedy that follows two moronic “clergybros” who are on a quest for fat beats, hot chicks and tricked out cell phones.  Vince and Aaron were called by God to spread a holy message: one of peace, love and tearin’ up the club.  By day the two sell religious kitsch at a kiosk in Viceroy Del Sol mall.  By night they hunt for babes, but only with mega tans and super smooth waxes in place.  Premiering in the spring of 2012, Tight Bros is created and written and executive produced by Sam Johnson and Chris Marcil.

They join previously announced NTSF:SD:SUV and Black Dynamite.
