20th Television Animation’s Duncanville is about to begin its second season and the cast and creators of the series got together to talk about it during their own Comic-Con@Home panel.
- The panel opened up by showing the audience a clip form the upcoming second season, featuring an altercation between Duncan and his father Jack.
- Moderator Michael Schneider then confirmed that Duncanville has already been renewed for a third season.
- The panel featured:
- Executive producers Mike Scully & Julie Thacker-Scully
- Executive producer and star Amy Poehler
- Ty Burrell
- Riki Lindhome
- Joy Osmanski
- Yassir Lester
- Betsy Sodaro
- Burrell, who plays Jack on the show, talked about the differences between himself and his character both as a man and as a father. He was also asked if he would prefer to have Jack or Phil Dunphy, his character on Modern Family, as his father. His answer was, quite easily, Phil.
- We also got a second clip in which Jack tried to come to terms with losing his signature ponytail.
- Osmanski, who plays Jing, talked about how playing a five-year-old was not too much of a stretch for her. She also expressed her excitement for an upcoming episode in which she sings.
- Sodaro and Lester talked about their connections to their characters, two of Duncan’s friends, and how similar they are to the characters they’ve brought to life.
- Lindhome, who portrays Kimberly, talked about how her mother watches the show and calls her after every episode to tell her how much she was like her character in junior high.
- There was also a Kimberly-focused clip in which she gets to the dentist to get her braces removed.
- Poehler, who plays both Duncan and his mother, talked about what it’s like to create those scenes between the two. She explained that Annie is so high-energy and Duncan is the exact opposite, so she actually tried not to bounce back and forth between the two when recording.
- The whole crew talked about some of the upcoming guest stars, including:
- Jason Schwartzman
- Stephen King
- Finn Wolfhard
- And others
- Finally, the group answered some fan questions regarding crossover potential, Duncan’s relationship with Mia and more.
