Prime Video Orders Animated Comedy 'Odd Jobs' Created by Mike McMahan and Dominic Dierkes

Prime Video has today given a series order to the original animated comedy series Odd Jobs created by Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks) and Dominic Dierkes (Solar Opposites). An episode count and premiere date window were not immediately announced.





The year is 2127, the world is an extreme late-stage capitalist hellscape. The show will follow reluctant team of gig workers as they travel around the neo-Midwest, doing the weirdest most dangerous tasks the ODD JOBS app demands.

McMahan and Dierkes will executive produce with Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, Ben Kalina and Amie Karp. Amazon MGM Studios, CBS Studios and Titmouse will produce.

"While wandering through the wilderness, we accidentally stumbled through a portal and found ourselves hundreds of years in the future," said McMahan and Dierkes. "We witnessed bizarre and grotesque portents about where humanity is heading. Instead of acting on those warnings, we're thrilled to turn them into an animated show."

"Odd Jobs is sharp, absurd, and laugh-out-loud funny, taking a wildly imaginative look at a future that's as chaotic as it is entertaining," added Melissa Wolfe, Head of Animation, Amazon MGM Studios. "Mike and Dominic have built a bold, unpredictable world filled with hilarious characters, and we couldn't be more excited to partner with CBS Studios and Titmouse to bring this new comedy to Prime Video audiences around the world."
