The fallout continues against Louis C.K. after he admitted sexual misconduct allegations against him. TBS has now suspended production on "The Cops", his new animated comedy series he co-created with Albert Brooks.
TBS gave a 10-episode straight-to-series order to the project in January for a 2018 premiere. “Production on The Cops has been suspended until further review,” the network said in a statement Friday.
"The Cops" follows Al (voiced by Brooks) and Lou (C.K.), two Los Angeles patrolmen trying their best to protect and serve, sometimes failing at both.
Per the logline: Ride with them as they patrol one of the biggest cities in the world, then go home with them and be glad you’re not married to either.
FX and FX Prods, which produces the animated series, said that Louis C.K. will no longer serve as executive producer or receive compensation on any of the four shows he was producing with the company, including "The Cops".
FX Productions also ended an overall deal with his Pig Newton productions.
