Golan The Insatiable is the new half-hour animated comedy series that premieres on FOX on the evening of Sunday, May 31st (10:30/9:30C) – but it’s not a completely new show.
This version, starring Rob Riggle as mighty godlord Golan the Insatiable and Aubrey Plaza as macabre nine year-old Dylan – his only friend – was inspired by the series of the same name that aired as part of FOX’s Animation Domination HD late night Saturday programming block.
Golan comes from an alternate dimension and befriends Dylan who uses their friendship to persuade Golan to wreak havoc on her town – not that he needs much persuading.
The voice cast also includes Ken Marino, John DiMaggio, Maria Bamford, Rachel Butera and Nick Rutherford. For more, follow the jump.
