With his hilarious video-mocking comedy series Tosh.0 being a smashing success, it’s no surprise that Comedy Central wants to stay in business with Daniel Tosh. As a matter of fact, the cable network has just announced a new collaboration with the comedian after greenlighting 10 episodes of a new animated series called Brickleberry which Tosh is executive producing with Waco O’Guin and Roger Black, the creators and writers of the new series. Tosh will also voice a character in the series which follows a group of dysfunctional forest rangers at a national park that is facing closure until a new ranger comes in to whip everyone into shape and save the park. The series will premiere sometime in early 2012, so we’ll have to wait a little while to see if it can shake a stick at South Park, or the more recent animated success of Ugly Americans. Of course, with Tosh involved, there will likely be plenty of people paying attention.
