Peacock has give a series order to the TV adaptation of “Dungeon Crawler Carl,” a New York Times best selling book from Matt Dinniman. Seth MacFarlane‘s Fuzzy Door is behind the series, which comes from the newly renamed Universal Global Television. Variety reported in April that the show had landed at Peacock.
Chris Yost (“The Mandalorian”) is on board as writer and executive producer, while Dinniman is set as a non-writing co-executive producer. MacFarlane will serve as an executive producer, while Fuzzy Door’s Erica Huggins and Rachel Hargreaves-Heald are also EPs.
Based on the book series of the same name by Matt Dinniman, the project was originally acquired by Universal International Studios in early 2025, though no network or streamer was attached at that time.
“Surprise! I’m happy to announce that our friends at Peacock have officially greenlit the Dungeon Crawler Carl television series,” Dinniman wrote on social media. “Me, Chris Yost and Seth MacFarlane and his team at Fuzzy Door are all really excited to get to work. In the coming weeks I’ll have more details, and if you’re going to SDCC be sure to catch me and Chris on our DCC panel. In the meantime I wanted to thank you, the fans, for helping make this happen.”
