FOX Orders New Animated Series, Murder Police, for Next Season

FOX has picked up a 13-episode order for Murder Police, a new animated comedy series centered on a detective and his ragtag team of colleagues in a twisted city precinct. David A. Goodman (Family Guy) and Jason Ruiz created the show.

"David and Jason came to us with a really fresh take on law enforcement that we've never seen before," said Kevin Reilly, FOX Chairman of Entertainment. "With Murder Police, these guys are taking a staple genre of television -- the cop show -- and turning it on its head by pushing the warped comedic boundaries that only animation can offer. It's the kind of show our Animation Domination fans will absolutely love, and I can't wait to introduce it next season."

Here's the official synopsis: "Manuel Sanchez (voiced by co-creator Ruiz) aspires to be a good cop, but his efforts to solve crimes are constantly put in jeopardy by his own clumsiness and the incompetence of his fellow detectives, including his partner, Tommy Margaretti (Will Sasso), a tough, rule-breaking 'bad cop' who can't interrogate a suspect without beating him up."

Other voice actors on the pilot include Horatio Sanz, Penny Marshall, Justina Machado, Chi McBride and Peter Atencio.

Murder Police is scheduled to debut during the 2013-2014 season.
