Family Time Through the Ages: Let's Have a First Look at 'Long Story Short' Coming to Netflix

Animated comedy Long Story Short from BoJack creator drops trailer & gets quick renewal.
Hey, fellow film lovers! I’ve just caught wind of some exciting news that’s got me genuinely intrigued. Raphael Bob-Waksberg, the genius behind BoJack Horseman, has a new animated comedy coming to Netflix called Long Story Short, and it’s already got an early renewal for a second season — before the first even drops!
That’s a pretty bold vote of confidence, and honestly, I can’t wait to see what all the fuss is about. The show follows the Schwooper family, jumping through different points in their lives — from childhood to adulthood and back again — exploring their triumphs, disappointments, joys, and compromises. Sounds like a heartfelt yet funny look at family life over time.
The cast is stacked with talent: Lisa Edelstein, Paul Reiser, Abbi Jacobson, Max Greenfield, Angelique Cabral, Nicole Byer — plus guest stars like Dave Franco and Michaela Dietz. Bob-Waksberg is showrunner and executive producer, with a talented team behind him. The first season will have 10 episodes of 30 minutes each, premiering on August 22.
Honestly, I’m already excited — especially after Bob-Waksberg’s own words about the early renewal:
“It must be a REALLY good show.”
Well, I’ll be watching that trailer again and counting down the days!
