Fox has ordered a new live-action comedy series called "Mammoth". The show is created by Christopher Lloyd and Danny Zuker, who are known for their work on "Modern Family". It is based on a British sitcom of the same name by Mike Bubbins.
The series follows Coach Tony Mammoth, a high school gym teacher whose life is put on hold in 1983 when he is buried in a freak ski avalanche. According to TheWrap, he thaws out 40 years later to find that the world has changed significantly, but he remains stuck in the 80s, still sporting a Burt Reynolds moustache and driving a Trans-AM.
The show is set to air in the 2027-28 season, Deadline reports, marking Fox's first live-action comedy series in over two years.
