Big Mouth is back for another round of humiliation, sexual awakening, and disgusting monsters farting out babies. And based on the trailer for season six, John Mulaney and Nick Kroll are getting the whole family involved.

New dad John Mulaney, whose family saga became the subject of an ungodly amount of internet drama in the past year, is using the TV show to share some of those child-rearing tips he’s learned—well, we presume. The show, with its hormone monsters, sexual humiliations, and enormous heads, is an often hilarious and disgusting depiction of adolescence

For season six, Andrew Glouberman and Nick Birch (Mulaney and Kroll, respectively) are older but not much wiser. As Andrew accidentally does his best American Pie for his parents, dancing in his underwear on the family Zoom account, Nick learns that he’s the descendant of a Viking nipple-twisting champion. Meanwhile, Maury, the hormone monster, is pregnant as hell because Connie forgot to crush up a Plan B in his calzone. It’s more Big Mouth action than one trailer can contain.

Since this is Big Mouth, the new season promises a slew of guest stars to provide vocal performances that will leave you distracted mid-episode as you ponder whose voice you’re hearing. Guest stars for this season include Annaleigh Ashford, Amber Ruffin, Brian Tyree Henry, Chris O’Dowd, Cole Escola, Ed Helms, Ira Glass, Jeff Goldblum, Matt Rogers, Peter Capaldi, Steve-O, Tyler The Creator, and, fresh off becoming the internet’s main character, Adam Levine. However, two people that aren’t guest starring are Paul F. Tompkins and Scott Aukerman—even though some eagle-eyed viewers have spotted them in the show’s character designs.

The next 10-episode season premieres on Netflix on October 28.

    Last season was kinda rough, hoping this one’s tighter and funnier. Didn’t watch Human Resources or whatever it was called because that seemed like a lot. But also stoked to have more Big Mouth!

      I feel like last season got extremely meta to the point where I’m not sure where else they’re gonna go. This is one of those shows that I typically forget about as soon as I finish watching a season, but didn’t Nick meet the “real” Nick Kroll (in non-animated form) who basically told him he was on a cartoon based on his life?

      Last season was a bit much, but I enjoyed the trailer so I’ve got my fingers crossed season six will be better.

      Human Resources was alright if as uneven as Big Mouth Season 5 was. I felt no eagerness to see a future season 2. Hopefully Season 6 can curb my ambivalence.

    I was legit offended by this show as an autistic person. It’s supposed to be the wokest of the woke, but the autistic kid gets nothing but awful Family Guy-level gags. Through all the seasons, other characters say maybe four words to him total. And they don’t even have the balls to say the word “autistic” in the show even though he’s clearly meant to be.I don’t know if the show ever got any shit for this, but it should have
