After the overwhelming success of “BoJack Horseman,” creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg returns with “Long Story Short,” a sitcom animated series centered on a Jewish family from Northern California that will premiere on Netflix on Aug. 22. The series, which unfolds across different timelines and emotional landscapes, finds its humor and heart in specificity, something Bob-Waksberg leans into unapologetically.
At this year’s Annecy Animation Festival, Bob-Waksberg sat down with Variety to discuss the show’s portrayal of Jewish identity, why specific stories work best and his new show’s adoption of a more grounded aesthetic.
