Brickleberry Ends


Comedy Central series wraps after three seasons.

Brickleberry, executive produced by Comedy Central star Daniel Tosh, was an unlikely success when it debuted in 2012, airing behind Tosh’s highly rated Tosh.0 on Tuesdays. Its strength has been young male viewers, with the toon winning its slot among men 18-24 for the first two seasons. Brickleberry’s third, and now final, season ended its run on November 18.

Brickleberry, created/executive produced by Waco O’Guin and Roger Black, revolved around a group of dysfunctional park rangers at a second-tier national park.

Brickleberry, created/executive produced by Waco O’Guin and Roger Black, revolved around a group of dysfunctional park rangers at a second-tier national park. ... The series was produced by Fox 21 TV Studios, with Bento Box executing the animation.

A couple of months ago, a Bento Box staffer* told me the series was pretty much over:

... Fox is trying to move the show to another network, but nobody holds out a lot of hope that will happen. I think it's over. ...

I was sworn to secrecy, and promised to keep my yap shut and typing fingers quiet, which I did. I break minor animation stories from time to time, but not when I'm to asked not to. I'm a union rep, not a news person. (Mostly.)

* I earlier referenced a supervisor, which was in ERROR. It was a Brickleberry person NOT a supervisor.
