Mating Season Gets Down and Dirty in the Forest With Its Latest Trailer

This trailer features an interview with a forest troll and podcast host, chatting with a raccoon named Ray Skidsky (voiced by Nick Kroll) about the show, including a clip of what to expect. The clip shows Ray bringing a skunk back to his place where… You know, images are better than words. We're just gonna let you watch the clip above to get the best image of what we refuse to spoil (for good reason). We're sure more teaser clips are on the way over the next few weeks, as the series debuts on May 22, 2026.

Mating Season is an adult animated romantic comedy — set in the animal world — about love, sex, relationships, and the universal need to find a partner and perpetuate the species — starring bears, raccoons, deer, foxes, and a host of other horny, lovable forest critters. Created by Mark Levin, Jennifer Flackett, Andrew Goldberg, and Nick Kroll — and executive produced by them for their company, Brutus Pink — with Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina serving as executive producers for Titmouse, this is going to satisfy all your post-Big Mouth comedy cravings.

"Big Mouth broke new ground in the world of adult animation with heart, humor, and total chaos — they took the awkwardness of adolescence and turned it into something universal and deeply human," said John Derderian, Vice President, Animation Series, Netflix. "Working with Nick Kroll and the brilliant minds at Brutus Pink over the course of eight seasons has been legendary. Now, with Mating Season, they'll bring that same bold and hilarious creativity into the animal kingdom. We're beyond excited to unleash this next chapter together."
