ADULT SWIM ORDERS GENRE-BENDING SKETCH COMEDY SERIES "THE TERRORS OF JORDAN MENDOZA"

BURBANK (August 12, 2025) - Adult Swim has ordered "The Terrors of Jordan Mendoza," a live-action, quarter-hour series created by and starring Jordan Mendoza that follows a very scared man as he navigates a barrage of absurd, terrifying, and hilarious dreamscapes.

Produced for Adult Swim by Avalon ("Last Week Tonight with John Oliver," "Catastrophe," "Starstruck," "Taskmaster"), "The Terrors of Jordan Mendoza" blends sharp comedy with surreal horror, diving deep into the subconscious of its protagonist to explore fears that are both deeply personal and strikingly universal.

"Jordan's voice is fresh, fearless, and completely original," said Cameron Tang, VP of Development, Adult Swim. "This series is a wild, funny, and sometimes unsettling ride through the mind of a brilliant creator - and exactly the kind of boundary-pushing comedy our audience expects."

Mendoza, a Boston-native writer, comedian, and filmmaker stars, directs, and executive produces. Aaron Brown, David Martin and Jonathan Stern also serve as Executive Producers. The series will air on Adult Swim in the U.S., while Avalon will distribute the show globally.

His additional credits include Netflix's "Kaleidoscope," A24's "Problemista," Universal's "Please Don't Destroy," and Eva Victor's "Sorry Baby."
