Clea DuVall struck up a conversation on the set of Veep with producers Jennifer Crittenden and Gabrielle Allan and, however many days/months/years later, it’s resulted in a new animated series for Fox. Deadline reports that Housebroken, an “irreverent” tale began as a chat about DuVall’s cat but soon morphed into an exploration of “human dysfunction and neurosis through a group of neighborhood animals who live in the suburbs.” DuVall, Crittenden, and Allan will all serve as writing executive producers, and they’ll also be joined by Divorce and Catastrophe creator Sharon Horgan, who will both produce and perform on the series.
Joining Horgan and DuVall in the cast is Lisa Kudrow, who is set for a lead role, as well as a crack squad of comic performers that include Will Forte, Nat Faxon, Jason Mantzoukas, Bresha Webb, and Greta Lee. Veep alums Tony Hale and Sam Richardson will also make an appearance.
Housebroken joins a number of animated comedies on Fox, including the similarly star-studded Bless The Harts, which just scored a second season renewal.

Smelly dog, smelly dog, what are they feeding you?
Clea DuVall is wonderful but not sure if I am feeling this. Needs more of her and Natasha Lyonne as a pet-loving lesbian couple & their adventures & maybe Clea DuVall is her Buffy character w/ invisibility powers & Natasha Lyonne is Nicky from OITNB trying to avoid going back to prison
Lyonne doesn’t need to be anywhere near a dog.
Natasha Lyonne’s dog Root Beer could be the star of this
I hope that dog doesn’t use Google.
I get the feeling there’s gonna be lots of pee jokes.
Ok I’m listening.
Not to be outdone, Disney+ is coming up with their own therapy dog show: Air Freuds
A baby Jawa and the therapy dog that reluctantly takes care of it?
A therapy dog I’d the role Kudrow was born to play!
So cannot wait for this. I have been a big fan of Kudrow since her web series Web Therapy. I thought she was funny on Friends, but in Web Therapy, she was brilliant!
HBO’s The Comeback is must-see television if you haven’t seen it yet. Kudrow is at her absolute best.
So this is kind of a reboot where she is reincarnated as a dog.
Given that her character in WT was unqualified and genrally lacking in empathy, that would be hilarious! A satire on so-called comfort animals. I love it!
In the last couple years, industries have seen a rise in independent contractors and people who work from the comfort of their homes.
