Fox has greenlit "Mammoth," a new live-action comedy from Christopher Lloyd and Danny Zuker, both known for their work on the series "Modern Family." The show adapts a British sitcom of the same name created by Mike Bubbins, bringing an international format to American audiences.
The comedy follows Coach Tony Mammoth, a larger-than-life high school gymnasium teacher. Variety reported the network order but did not disclose the show's full premise, supporting cast, or premiere date when the deal was announced.
Lloyd is attached as co-creator on the project. Zuker serves as executive producer and writer. Both are bringing their television experience to another comedy venture with the network.
