On August 17, 2021, voice actor Earl Skakel announced that Adult Swim cancelled the show after two seasons.[5]
The show follows a family of anthropomorphic jellyfish and their 16-year-old human son Cornell. When the boy learns he was adopted at birth, he is shocked, and subsequently spirals out of control in an attempt to "find himself." As a result, he and his family and friends wind up in what the network bills as "uncanny situations."
