Mike Judge Creates another Gang of Underdogs
12 February 2020
The set-up - a group of misfit programmers at a Google-esque tech giant, Hooli, who take a chance on their super-fast search algorithm - is ripe with potential for satirical commentary. More like OFFICE SPACE than Mike Judge's animated projects, this pilot is immediately populated by diverse characters trapped in a nerdy workforce, whose passion to run their own lives makes them instant underdogs. It's undeniable that the combination of Thomas Middleditch, Kumail Nanjani, and T.J. Miller set this series on a firm bedrock of comedic intuition.
