‘The Shivering Truth’ Season 2 Premiering on Adult Swim Come May 10!

Adult Swim has released the all-new official trailer for the “highly-anticipated” second season of The Shivering Truth. The upcoming season will premiere on Sunday, May 10, 2020, at midnight right after Rick and Morty.

The American stop-motion animated series, The Shivering Truth, has been described as a surrealist anthology sketch comedy show. It was created by Vernon Chatman and directed by Chatman and Cat Solen. The first season debuted on Adult Swim on December 9, 2018. The pilot was released on the Adult Swim website back in May of 2018.

The official synopsis reads:

“THE SHIVERING TRUTH” is a delicately crafted, darkly surreal anthology comedy. Each episode is a miniature propulsive omnibus cluster bomb of painfully riotous daymares all dripping with the orange goo of dream logic. A series of loosely linked emotional parables about stories within tales that crawled out of the deepest caverns of your unconscious mind and became lovingly animated in breath-slapping stop motion — in other words, it is the TRUTH (squared).

According to the press release, this season features the voices of Kate Berlant, Mike Birbiglia, Wyatt Cenac, Julia Davis, Chris Elliott, Will Forte, Josh Gad, Miranda July, Jason Mantzoukas, Kyle Mooney, Griffin Newman, Ego Nwodim, Alia Shawkat, and Tierra Whack, along with show creator and writer, Vernon Chatman.

The quarter-hour animated series has been Executive Produced by PFFR (Chatman, Alyson Levy, and John Lee) with Solen. It has been Co-Executive Produced by Lisa M. Thomas. The animation studio is HouseSpecial.

Here’s the trailer! There’s a lot of weirdness going on in it!

According to data, the first season (which, excluding the pilot, consisted of six episodes) was able to keep the live-viewing numbers above the 0.50 million mark each week. The highest live-viewing number was 0.717 million which made for more than 0.30 in the coveted 18-49 demo. So, there’s clearly a fanbase for this show.

Are you someone who watches The Shivering Truth? Are you excited for the second season?
