Prepare to get schooled in April.

School is back in session when FOX premieres its new animated comedy "Sit Down, Shut Up" in its Sunday Animation Domination lineup on Sunday, April 19 at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.

The wacky comedy centers on the dysfunctional faculty and staff at a Florida fishing-town high school as they avoid tasks like, say, teaching.

The series, based on the live-action Australian series, combines animation against a live-action backdrop. "Arrested Development" creator Mitch Hurwitz is behind the comedy, which explains some of the all-star voice cast that includes Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, Kristin Chenoweth, Will Forte, Tom Kenny, Nick Kroll, Cheri Oteri, Kenan Thompson and Henry Winkler.

Also executive producing are " Two and a Half Men's" Eric and Kim Tannenbaum and Josh Weinstein of " The Simpsons."

I saw it...and I didn't like it.

I didn't like it either. I don't think it's nearly as good as the other animated shows on Fox.

Yeah, I wasn't too crazy about the first episode of Sit Down And Shut Up.

It had a few LOL moments, and the voice cast is top notch, but it wasn't that great.
