The project was first announced with a pilot order in 2025. Exact plot details are still under wraps, aside from the fact it is inspired by the classic Mel Brooks-Gene Wilder comedy “Young Frankenstein.” As previously reported, the show stars Zach Galifianakis, Dolly Wells and Spencer House. Nikki Crawford, Kumail Nanjiani, and Cary Elwes also appeared in the pilot.
