## Synopsis

Krapopolis (2023-present) is an American adult animated comedy series created by Dan Harmon for FOX. Set in mythical ancient Greece, it follows a flawed family of humans, gods and monsters attempting to run one of the world's first cities without destroying one another. Richard Ayoade voices Tyrannis, the family patriarch whose schemes for power keep collapsing, while Hannah Waddingham voices Deliria and Matt Berry voices Shlub, all squabbling in a household where divine and mortal dysfunction collide. Each episode is built from the chaos of municipal decision-making, petty family grudges and ridiculous mythic mishaps, so the engine is simple: the family wants control and keeps tripping over its own appetites. The show is a three-season run of short animated episodes that plays like an irreverent sitcom with a serialized thread of civic ambition. Its tone is sardonic, irreverent and absurdist, with anachronistic jokes that puncture the grandeur of classical myth. Fans of Family Guy and Rick and Morty will find resonance in its cynical humor and mismatched ensemble.
