BBC3 has just commissioned a brand new show We are Mongrels which has been pitched as “Avenue Q meets Family Guy”. We Are Mongrels centers on a country fox in search of ‘the real wild life’ in the city, where he meets an array of creatures on the Isle of Dogs, including a ‘sexy’ Afghan Hound with whom he falls in love, a street cat and a sarcastic pigeon from Blackburn.
The executive producer, Steven McCrumb, has said this about the new adult puppet show; “It has a lot of cutaways and flashbacks and it’s fast-moving – more like an animation with puppets than a traditional sitcom. It gives you the licence to do things you can’t with live action. We pitched it as Avenue Q meets Family Guy: it’s playfully adult like Family Guy, but it’s not crude in a Two Pints way.”
Update (24 July): Information about We Are Mongrels can be found on the British Comedy Guide website.
