Adult Swim fans can catch a new animated wave in the debut episode of Buzzard’s Bay, a coming-of-age comedy series for the network’s Smalls shorts program from animator Torey Strahl (The Colbert Report, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert) and comedian/writer Elena Ridker (Broad City).
Logline: It’s summer 2003 on Cape Cod and four horny teens are living their beach town dreams: working at a pizza shop by day, swappin’ spit under the docks at night, and getting schooled on life by a talking seagull.
In the first episode, “High Tide, Low Rise,” the gang sneaks out to catch the first sunrise of summer … unfortunately for Buzz, Rainnn is on the forecast.
Ridker wrote the episode and Strahl created the digital 2D animation. The co-creators, both from Massachusetts originally, also voice star alongside James Fasulo and Steven Castillo. Background art is by Dak Stiga.
Episode 2 of Buzzard’s Bay will debut on the Adult Swim Smalls YouTube channel on Friday, May 9.
