‘DeFlocked’ joins AMU

After 10 years of syndication with King Features, DeFlocked becomes the newest feature in the Andrews McMeel Universal lineup.

The brainchild of Jeff Corriveau, a former writer on The Tonight Show and Saturday Night Live, Deflocked is set on an old farm where four barn animals join together to form a misfit family: Mamet, a delusional sheep; his two dog brothers, Cobb and Rupert, who attempt to keep Mamet’s antics in check; and an adopted human boy, Tucker, who makes their adventures even more awkward (and funny).

Tackling topics such as pop culture, interpersonal relationships and the small injustices of life, the highly relatable DeFlocked has amassed an impressive following, including Curb Your Enthusiasm and Seinfeld creator Larry David, who considers himself one of the strip’s many fans.
