Synopsis
Mulligan (2023) is an animated satire you can watch online on iFILM — a Netflix series created by Sam Means and Robert Carlock, with Tina Fey, Daniel Radcliffe, Will Arnett, Ayo Edebiri, Sam Richardson, and Nat Faxon in the voice cast.
Aliens obliterate most of Earth, and the survivors — a thoroughly unqualified handful of Americans — decide this is their moment to build a better country. Mulligan had no real plan for this. Nobody important picked him. The show uses the post-apocalyptic setup as a delivery system for political satire aimed at Congress, manifest destiny, bureaucratic inertia, and the human talent for repeating the same mistakes under radically new conditions.
With Tina Fey and Robert Carlock in the room, the comedy earns its edge — pointed without curdling into a civics lecture. For anyone who wants their post-apocalypse absurdist rather than grim, Mulligan lands. Watch it online on iFILM.
