Freeform Orders Animated Comedy ‘Praise Petey’

Freeform has greenlit an animated comedy called “Praise Petey”, which follows Petey (voice of Annie Murphy), a New York City ‘it’ girl who has it all until her life comes crashing down around her. The logline: As luck would have it, a mysterious gift from her father gives her a new lease on life: she’s going to ‘lean into’ modernizing his small-town cult.”

The voice ensemble also includes John Cho (“Cowboy Bebop”), Christine Baranski (“The Good Fight”), Kiersey Clemons (“Angie Tribeca”), Amy Hill (“Magnum P.I”.) and Stephen Root (“Barry”).

“Praise Petey” comes from creator/writer Anna Drezen (“Saturday Night Live”), who executive-produces alongside Monica Padrick (“Central Park”). Additional EPs include Bandera Entertainment’s Mike Judge, Greg Daniels and Dustin Davis, and ShadowMachine’s Alex Bulkley and Corey Campodonico.
