Rooster Teeth has dubbed the middle months of 2016 as its “summer of animation,” but by the end of the season, the digital studio will have fit some live-action laughs into its schedule, too. It has released a story featurette for Crunch Time, a half-hour, sci-fi comedy that is expected to launch on September 11th.
Crunch Time will follow a group of grad students who accidentally open up a black hole while fooling around with a machine that induces lucid dreams. The show’s cast is a good one; it includes Samm Levine (Freaks And Geeks), Nick Rutherford (Good Neighbor), Vine weirdo Avery Monsen, and Rooster Teeth co-founder Burnie Burns. Several of those performers appear in the aforementioned featurette, which was uploaded on August 11th, a month before Crunch Time
’s slate premiere date.Crunch Time is one of two new shows available exclusively to those who subscribe to Rooster Teeth’s premium service, now known as FIRST. For $3.99/month or $19.99/6 months, FIRST subscribers receive access to the complete Rooster Teeth library, a discount on the studio’s merchandise, and several other perks.
The first season of Crunch Time will consist of six episodes. After its premiere, new episodes will arrive each week.
