ADULT SWIM ORDERS NEW STOP-MOTION SERIES "WOMEN WEARING SHOULDER PADS" AND RENEWS ADULT ANIMATED COMEDY "YOLO"

NEW YORK (October 12, 2023) - At New York Comic Con today, Adult Swim announced a new stop-motion series "Women Wearing Shoulder Pads," which follows a wealthy Spaniard living in Ecuador as she journeys through the complicated world of love, family, commercials, and cuyes, a.k.a. South American guinea pigs. The new series will mark Adult Swim's first-ever Spanish-language series along with its return to the stop-motion animation format.

During the panel, Adult Swim also announced the third season renewal of the animated comedy "YOLO" from "SMILING FRIENDS" co-creator Michael Cusack. With a second season that ranked #2 in its timeslot across cable in key demos, the third installment, "YOLO: Rainbow Trinity," will follow a pair of Australian best friends through absurd and fantastical adventures.

"Women Wearing Shoulder Pads" is a quarter-hour comedy that features an all-female cast and centers on Marioneta, an extremely wealthy and ambitious Spaniard living in South America pursuing business and pleasure. Produced entirely in Spanish, with English subtitles, the series comes from creator Gonzalo Cordova ("Tuca & Bertie," "Adam Ruins Everything") in partnership with Mexico City-based studio Cinema Fantasma ("Frankelda's Book of Spooks").

"While we've all seen a million stop-motion shows in Spanish featuring an all-female cast centered on the plight of guinea pigs, Gonzalo's unique voice and the visually rich stop-motion from Cinema Fantasma meant that we couldn't pass up on 'Women Wearing Shoulder Pads,'" said Michael Ouweleen, president, Adult Swim. "We are also big fans of Michael Cusack's creative vision, and it's a huge win for us to continue working with him on the hilarious 'YOLO.'"

Adult Swim is the leader in adult animation and #1 destination for young adults for over fifteen years, offering critically acclaimed, award-winning original and acquired series such as "Rick and Morty," "Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal," "The Eric Andre Show," "SMILING FRIENDS," "Unicorn: Warriors Eternal" and "My Adventures with Superman." Fan favorite anime block, Toonami, airs on Saturday nights and has expanded beyond acquisitions, producing original series including "Housing Complex C," "Uzumaki," and "FLCL." The annual Adult Swim Festival reaches a global audience, and features performances by top musicians and comedians.
