Money … Power … Family … Crackers!
The newest Adult Swim animated comedy has all this and more, as the first episode of Royal Crackers offers an appetizer with a YouTube debut ahead of the official premiere. The show, originally commissioned by Adult Swim Canada, will launch Sunday, April 2 at 11 p.m. with three back-to-back episodes on Adult Swim, streaming the next day on HBO Max.
Created by and starring Jason Ruiz (Murder Police), the half-hour show centers on a Bakersfield snack food dynasty in decline.
Synopsis: Royal Crackers was once the king of snacks, but the empire is crumbling. When the family patriarch, tyrannical company founder Theodore Hornsby Sr. ends up in a “super coma,” the rest of the Hornsbys will take their lack of talent and business acumen and try to make Royal Crackers the success it once was.
The voice cast also features Andrew Santino (Dave), Jessica St. Clair (Veep), David Gborie (Exploding Kittens), Emmy winner Maile Flanagan (Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks) and Fred Tatasciore (Genndy Tartakovsky’s Primal).
