  "account": "Peacock has ordered the sci-fi LitRPG series Dungeon Crawler Carl to series. The show follows Coast Guard veteran Carl and his ex-girlfriend's cat Princess Donut as they navigate a supernatural quest for survival. As survivors of an alien apocalypse, they must compete in a reality series called Dungeon Crawler World: Earth. They need to adapt quickly to their surroundings or face off against monsters, bosses, AI, and other crawlers all vying for attention and gifts from show viewers.\n\nThe series is adapted from Matt Dinniman's 18-novel book series, with plans to conclude with the 10th novel. Season 1, helmed by Seth MacFarlane, will adapt the first book, which introduces the 18-level game created by the Syndicate, an intergalactic governing body funding its planetary mining operations through this reality show.\n\nJeff Hays, best known for narrating the Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobooks, has been cast as the voice of Princess Donut. Hays has provided over 200 distinct voices for the series, including Donut's for six years. While fans may be hoping Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy voice actor Seth Green returns, no other cast members have been announced yet. Production of Dungeon Crawler Carl is currently underway, with no release date set.",
