Fans of "Schitt's Creek" have reason to rejoice as Dan Levy is set to release a new family comedy series on Netflix. The announcement was made during Netflix's 2025 upfront presentation.

Levy will not only star in the currently untitled series but also serve as its creator and showrunner. He will co-executive produce alongside Rachel Sennott. The cast will feature acclaimed actress Laurie Metcalf ("The Conners") and Taylor Ortega, recently seen in Netflix's "The Four Seasons."

While specific plot details are scarce, Netflix provided the official logline: "Two deeply incapable siblings are blackmailed into the world of organized crime." This premise suggests a comedic family dynamic that aligns with Levy's previous work.

In a statement, Levy expressed his enthusiasm: "I'm so excited to be bringing this truly chaotic family story to life with Netflix. Thrilled with the team we’re building both behind the scenes and in front of the camera. Taylor Ortega is going to become a household name and it's been my life's mission to get to call Laurie Metcalf 'mother.' Looking forward to getting to share this with everyone."

Production for the 8-episode limited series is scheduled to begin later this year, with a release date yet to be announced.
