NETFLIX COMMITS TO "BAD CRIMES," NEW ANIMATED COMEDY FROM NICOLE SILVERBERG, PRODUCED BY GREG DANIELS AND MIKE JUDGE, STARRING NICOLE BYER AND LAUREN LAPKUS

Daniels and Judge Producing through their New Bandera Entertainment Company

· Netflix today ordered a 10 episode season of Bad Crimes, an adult animation dark comedy procedural. Bad Crimes stars Nicole Byer and Lauren Lapkus as "Kara" and "Jennie," two FBI agents who travel across the country to solve grisly crimes while juggling their friendship, career ambitions, and as many men as possible.

· Bad Crimes is executive produced by legendary creators Greg Daniels and Mike Judge, under their new production company, Bandera Entertainment.

· Creator / Executive Producer: Nicole Silverberg.

· Executive Producers: Mike Judge, Greg Daniels and Dustin Davis for Bandera Entertainment; Erica Hayes, Nicole Byer and Lauren Lapkus.

· Mike Moon, Netflix Head of Adult Animation: "This is a dream project! Greg and Mike are the visionaries behind some of the smartest and funniest comedies of all time, including one of the most-beloved animated shows ever. Combined with the brilliant mind of Nicole Silverberg and the immense voice talents of Nicole Byer and Lauren Lapkus, we know Bad Crimes will be set up for great success."

· Nicole Silverberg, creator and executive producer: "Making Bad Crimes with Greg and Mike and Bandera, who are the whole reason I dreamed of one day getting to write TV, has been such a surreal and incredible experience. We all feel that working with Netflix - which not only permits, but encourages my grossest, most violent comedy fantasies - is a dream come true. Plus, I am partnering with Erica Hayes and a genius team of writers who are building this show into something unique and special."

· Erica Hayes, executive producer: "What really drew me to this project in the beginning was the fact that it was female-created and female-led, with a creator who was very passionate about diversity, inclusion, and worker's rights. These are values that are very in line with my own, so I was thrilled at the prospect of partnering with someone with a similar mindset. Then after reading Nicole's script, I was so impressed with not only how hilarious it was, but that the female leads were allowed to be morally gray and flawed in ways that we have rarely seen in adult animation. Nicole was really interested in hiring a partner who could help build the visual side of the show from top to bottom, which was incredibly appealing, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it."

· Format: Adult Animation; 10 episodes

· Nicole Silverberg Bio: Silverberg is an Emmy-nominated and WGA Award-winning TV writer originally from Tucson, AZ. She was a supervising writer at Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, where she won a GLAAD Award, and was a longtime editor at Reductress, the online satirical women's magazine. Nicole was named one of Brooklyn Magazine's 50 Funniest People in Brooklyn.

· Erica Hayes Bio: Hayes has been a professional artist in the animation industry for nine years. She started as a storyboard revisionist on Season 1 of Rick and Morty and rose the ranks to director in Season 4. She also worked in various capacities on series such as Fairfax, BoJack Horseman, Big Mouth and Solar Opposites. Erica holds a B.F.A. in Sequential Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design.

· About Bandera Entertainment: Greg Daniels & Mike Judge's partnership first began on the long-running, critically-acclaimed animated show KING OF THE HILL. Following that success, they spent the next years working on projects independently, but their shared sensibilities and love of animation led to the foundation of Bandera Entertainment, where the goal is to curate a relevant, diverse slate of animated programming. Their aim is to expand the animation genre into as many modern types of story-telling as live action, guided by an excitement for artists and writers and ideas.

· About Netflix: Netflix is the world's leading streaming entertainment service with 214 million paid memberships in over 190 countries enjoying TV series, documentaries, feature films and mobile games across a wide variety of genres and languages.
