KRAPOPOLIS

Premieres Sunday, Sept. 24, 8/7c, Fox

If all good things come to those who wait, then expect) sitcom—originally slated to premiere last fall—follows a family of humans, gods and monsters looking to coexist in this new thing called a “city.” Richard Ayoade () voices Tyrannis, the benevolent, virgin ruler of Krapopolis (“Hey, I’m only a below-thewaist virgin,” he corrects), who is caught between his mother, Deliria (’s Hannah Waddingham), a shape-shifting goddess of self-destruction and questionable choices who loves being adored by mortals, and his deadbeat dad, Shlub (Matt Berry, ), a hard-drinking centaur-manticore hybrid who looks at himself as the life of the orgy. Tyrannis is bent on creating an empire, and Fox appears to be feeling the same way—the network has already ordered Seasons 2 and 3, so the laughs here may indeed be historic.
