What’s new? These are the series innovations 2023/2024 at Fox

At Fox, the classic pilot season has long been a thing of the past. For the second time in a row, the station no pilot episodes ahead of time produce for potential series. Instead, the broadcaster has scripts developed throughout the year, on the basis of which it decides whether to order a series.

These series novelties will soon expand the Fox program:

Here’s the first trailer for the new series Krapopolis:

The US networks are currently facing a major challenge. The beginning of May began Hollywood writers strike. Depending on how long the strike lasts, it will have a major impact on the series and seasons that actually start in the fall. (You can read more about the script strike and the demands here).

At Fox, however, things are a little different. Much of Fox programming is made up of animated series. These have significantly longer production times than live-action series. For example, the production time for a Simpsons episode is around 6 months. Before the actual animation work begins, the scripts have long been written and the dialogues have already been recorded.

Fox has already come up with its animation program prepared in advance for the impact of the strike and, for example, the starts of the new shows Krapopolis and Grimsburg, which were actually planned for May, have been postponed to the coming TV season, as Deadline reports.

It is not yet known when and where the new series will be shown and streamed in Germany. The first port of call would be Disney+.
