Everybody Still Hates Chris finally has a premiere date on Comedy Central. The new animated series, based on the UPN/CW sitcom Everybody Hates Chris, will premiere on Sep. 25, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Chris Rock will return to narrate, as the show is loosely based on stories from his childhood and growing up in Brooklyn. Terry Crews and Tichina Arnold will reprise their roles as Julius and Rochelle, Chris’ parents. Tyler James Williams, Tequan Richmond, Imani Hakim, and Vincent Martella will not be reprising their roles as Chris, Drew, Tonya, and Greg, respectively, due to the fact that the new series will center on young Chris, and the actors are too old.
Instead, Tim Johnson Jr., Terrence Little Gardenhigh, Ozioma Akagha, and Gunnar Sizemore will take over. CBS Studios produces Everybody Still Hates Chris via animation branch Eye Animation Productions with Chris Rock Enterprises and 3 Arts Entertainment. Rock serves as executive producer alongside showrunner Sanjay Shah, Everybody Hates Chris co-creator Ali LeRoi, Michael Rotenberg and Dave Becky of 3 Arts Entertainment, and Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina of Titmouse.

The new series may not be exactly the same, but it will still be an entertaining one to watch.

Fans can always watch Everybody Hates Chris on several platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, and Freevee for free, as well as Hulu, Peacock, Disney+, and Paramount+. Everybody Still Hates Chris premieres on Wednesday, Sep. 25, only on Comedy Central.
