Scoop: Sitcom Vet Martin Mull Is One of Seth MacFarlane's New Dads

Martin Mull (Roseanne, Arrested Development) has landed one of the lead roles in Dads, Seth MacFarlane’s new live-action comedy for Fox, TVLine has learned.

The sitcom, which has already received a six-episode order, revolves around two successful video game entrepreneurs, Warner (The Mindy Project‘s Thomas Dewey) and Eli, who find their lives turned upside-down when their nightmare fathers unexpectedly move in with them.

Mull will play Warner’s dad Crawford, a man who has blithely and happily ignored all the chaos he’s caused by moving in with his son.

MacFarlane serves as an EP on the project alongside his fellow Ted writers Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild.
