New Drama Series

Doc -- Based on the globally acclaimed Italian series Doc -- Nelle tue mani, which was created and is produced by Lux Vide, a Fremantle Company, Fox's Doc is a new medical drama centered on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Elias, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she’s treated, colleagues she’s crossed, the soulmate she divorced, the man she now loves and the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience. Doc is co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and FOX Entertainment Studios. Created by Francesco Arlanch and Viola Rispoli, Doc -- Nelle tue mani debuted in Italy on Rai 1 in 2020, where it ranked as the network’s No. 1 series premiere since 2007. Since then, the series format has been sold in 12 countries with seven versions already made.

Rescue: HI-Surf -- From executive producer/director John Wells and executive producer/writer Matt Kester comes this pulse-pounding Hawaii-based lifeguard drama that follows the personal and professional lives of the heavy-water lifeguards who patrol and protect the North Shore of O'ahu -- the most famous and dangerous stretch of coastline in the world. Rescue: HI-Surf is co-produced by Warner Bros. Television and Fox Entertainment Studios. Matt Kester created the series.

New Animated Comedies

Krapopolis -- Set in mythical Ancient Greece, Krapopolis centers on a flawed family of humans, gods and monsters that tries to run one of the world's first cities without killing each other. The voice cast features Emmy Award winner Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso), Richard Ayoade (The IT Crowd), Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows), Pam Murphy (Mapleworth Murders) and Duncan Trussell (The Midnight Gospel). Krapopolis is owned by Fox Entertainment and produced by Bento Box Entertainment. Dan Harmon is Creator and Executive Producer. Jordan Young is Executive Producer and Showrunner (Season One). Alex Rubens is Executive Producer and Showrunner (Seasons Two & Three).

Grimsburg -- Jon Hamm gives voice to Marvin Flute, a brilliant detective with opinions as eccentric as his taste, who can't help but prioritize his own personal problems -- whether it be his family or petty differences among his co-workers -- over the crimes he's tasked with solving. Now that he's back in Grimsburg, a town where everyone has a secret or three, Flute will follow every lead he's got to redeem himself with the ex-wife he never stopped loving, even if it means hanging out with the son he never bothered to get to know. Grimsburg is owned by Fox Entertainment and produced by Bento Box Entertainment. Gail Berman, Hend Baghdady, Chadd Gindin, Connie Tavel and Jon Hamm serve as Executive Producers.

New Unscripted Series

Snake Oil -- This game show is hosted and produced by Emmy- and Golden Globe Award-nominated comedian David Spade and executive-produced by Emmy nominee Will Arnett (LEGO Masters, Arrested Development) through his Electric Avenue Productions. In the show’s all-new original format, contestants are pitched unique products by convincing entrepreneurs -- some of whom are showcasing real business ventures, while the others are "Snake Oil Salesmen" whose products are fake. With the help of guest celebrity advisors, contestants must determine which products are real and which are a sham, for a chance to win life-changing money. Snake Oil is produced by Fox Alternative Entertainment and Electric Avenue. Will Arnett, Marc Forman and Neal Konstantini serve as Executive Producers, and Konstantini serves as Showrunner. David Spade is a Producer.

We Are Family -- A "music guessing game show" hosted and executive-produced by Jamie Foxx and co-hosted by his daughter, Corinne Foxx. Showcasing non-famous relatives of celebrities performing duets with their hidden famous family members, We Are Family will feature a studio audience entirely comprised of 100 contestants playing through multiple rounds of clues and gameplay to win up to $100,000 each by correctly guessing which celebrity the performer is related to before they are revealed. The series is co-produced by Apploff Entertainment and Fox’s in-house unscripted studio, Fox Alternative Entertainment, which created the program.

As previously announced, Fox's summer slate includes new seasons of Beat Shazam (May 23), Don't Forget the Lyrics (May 23), Gordon Ramsay's Food Stars (May 24), MasterChef (May 24) and Crime Scene Kitchen (June 5) as well as the series launch of Stars on Mars (June 5).
