TBS orders animated series ‘The Cops’ featuring Louis C.K., Albert Brooks

PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 15 (UPI) — TBS said it has green-lit 10 episodes of the animated series The Cops, which was co-created by and will feature the voices of Louis C.K. and Albert Brooks.

C.K. and Brooks will serve as executive producers on the series with Greg Daniels, Dino Stamatopoulos, Dave Becky and Howard Klein.

Set to debut in 2018, the show follows two Los Angeles patrolmen “trying their best to protect and serve, sometimes failing at both,” the cable network said in a press release.

“We have made the bold decision to put Louis C.K., Albert Brooks and Greg Daniels at the forefront of what is going to be a serious push into animated comedy for TBS in 2018,” Brett Weitz, executive vice president of original programming for TBS, said in a statement. “I only hope these newbies know what they’re doing.”
