The early renewal of the season came after the success of the ongoing fourth season.


Joel McHale-starrer single-cam sitcom titled “Animal Control’ has been renewed for Season 5. The show that follows a group of animal control workers in Seattle is currently airing its fourth season.

 

McHale stars as Frank, described as "an opinionated, eccentric Animal Control officer who may not have gone to college but is still the most well-read person in the room. A former cop, Frank, tried to expose corruption in his department, but his efforts got him fired, which may explain why he's so cynical and curmudgeonly. He has an almost superhuman ability to understand animals. Humans...not so much," read the description of the McHale's character.

 

The early renewal of the season came after the success of the ongoing fourth season.

 

"With the writing, ensemble, and audience response all landing at new levels, renewing 'Animal Control' was an easy decision. The series launched to new highs in its fourth season, which is a direct reflection of the show's continued creative growth, outstanding producing team, and the incredible Joel McHale as our lead," said Michael Thorn, president of Fox Television Network.
