Tonight at 9p on Fox is the season finale of Animal Control, and what a purrfect season it has been.
I wish I could say it ends on a happy note, but it doesn’t. Frank (Joel McHale), Emily (Vella Lovell), Shred (Michael Rowland), Patel (Ravi V. Patel), Victoria (Grace Palmer), Templeton (Gerry Dee), and Rick (Kevin Bigley) get together for a funeral. Sadly beloved C38 has passed away, and Frank is not taking the cougar’s death well.
He is not the only one who is not handling things well. Shred is ready to dump his girlfriend for Emily. But then he finds out that Emily is considering dating Rick. So what is he going to do?
He is not the only one who gets news he didn’t want, as does Patel. And Patel’s news will change his life.
And then there is Victoria. She doesn’t have any life-altering changes tonight. However, she does help everyone through their problems and throws them a party to say goodbye to C38.
And that is what makes Animal Control so special. It is a show about a family, a work family, but a family nonetheless. So they are there for each other through the good times and the bad. And we are there for them all. That, and the animals. Like the cute cats in tonight’s episode!
So tune in tonight and then watch the season again on Hulu or the Fox app. Because the more people that watch it, the better the chance that Fox will give it a second season. And it deserves another one over Call Me Kat and Welcome to Flatch.
