Tuca and Bertie Trailer
Ali Wong and Tiffany Haddish have insanechemistry in the recording booth, and it comes across in this frenetic animated series created by Lisa Hanawalt. The 10-episode first season ofTuca & Bertiefollows the care-free toucan Tuca (Haddish) and the anxious songbird Bertie (Wong) as they navigate the perils of their 30s. They may run into relationship troubles or get banned from theme parks for taking their tops off on a ferris wheel, but at least they have each other.
WhileTuca & Bertiedoesn’t seem to have the melancholic depths ofBoJack Horseman, that could be waiting in the final episodes. The series looks like a funny, insightful millennial comedy led by a female comedy dream team — Haddish and her infectious personality is everywhere after her breakout role in 2017’sGirls Trip,and Wong has long deserved a starring role after killing it in her Netflix comedy specials (both performed while pregnant!). That’s not to mention the stacked cast, which includesSteven Yeunwith guest performances byNicole Byer,Richard E. Grant,John Early,Reggie Watts,TigNotaro,Amber Ruffin,Jermaine Fowler, andTessa Thompson.
Here is the synopsis forTuca & Bertie:
A comedy about the friendship of two 30-year-old bird women who live in the same apartment building: Tuca, a cocky, care-free toucan and Bertie, an anxious, daydreaming songbird.
