Jane Lynch (Glee) and Wilmer Valderrama have joined the voice cast of Fox’s new animated comedy series Murder Police. Lynch and Valderrama join a cast that includes Will Sasso, Chi McBride, Peter Atencio, Justina Machado, and writer/animator Jason Ruiz.

Fox is planning on premiering the series during the 2013-2014 season.

The Plot:

Manuel’s ex-wife, ROSA (Machado), is a public defender whose passionate defense of criminals is what initially broke up their marriage. But they remain bonded in the upbringing of their son, MARIO (Ruiz), a troubled teen who is less impressed with his father than he is by the criminals he catches.

The inter-office workplace comedy series follows a dedicated but inept detective and his colleagues – some perverted, some corrupt, some just plain lazy – in a twisted city precinct.
