Netflix Orders ‘Dad’s House’ Adult Animated Series

Netflix has given a series order to Dad’s House, an adult animated comedy series executive produced by Michael Cusack (Smiling Friends, Yasl ), Dario Russo (Danger 5, Italian Spiderman, The Fox) and David Ashby (Danger 5, Italian Spiderman).

Cusack, Russ and Ashby also serve as showrunners and star in the voice cast, along with Felicity Ward (The Office, Wakefield, The Inbetweeners 2). The series hails from Princess Studios and Bento Box Entertainment.

Dad’s House is set in small-town suburban Australia, where 13-year-old child of divorce, Sean, spends every second weekend with his laidback, but well meaning dad, Ian. Cramming quality dad-time into a single weekend is already a tall order — but Ian has a remarkable gift for making it so much harder than it needs to be.

Dad’s House is produced by Princess Pictures and Bento Box Entertainment.

Dad’s House joins an ever-growing slate of adult animated comedies including upcoming series Mating Season, Dang!, Alley Cats and Haunted Hotel season 2; the critically acclaimed Long Story Short, which has been renewed for a second season; and fan favorites Big Mouth and BoJack Horseman. 

Cusack is represented by UTA and JSSK; Russo and Ashby are repped by UTA.
