The series was originally a co-production between the BBC and FX, similar to the drama series Taboo.[30] A pilot was already filmed at the time of the announcement. On October 14, 2018, it was announced that FX and Sky (the latter replacing the BBC) had commissioned the series with ten half-hour episodes, with a series debut in 2020.[31] On January 20, 2020, FX announced that the series would premiere on March 2, 2020.[32]On May 18, 2020, the series was renewed for a second season which premiered on March 22, 2021.[33][34] On May 27, 2021, the series was renewed for a third season.[35] On July 19, 2022, the series was renewed for a fourth season.[36]Casting[edit]Alongside the series announcement, it was announced that Freeman would star in the series. Furthermore, Daisy Haggard and Michael Gambon were also cast in the series.[30] However, on April 21, 2019, it was reported that Gambon left the series as he was having trouble memorising his lines due to memory loss issues.[37]Filming[edit]Filming for the second season had been delayed by sixteen weeks due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the delay, filming for the second season began on September 1, 2020, in London,[38][39] and concluded production on December 18, 2020.[40] Season 3 began filming in November 2021 and concluded filming in March 2022.Release[edit]The series premiered on March 2, 2020, on FX in the United States and Canada. The series premiere coincided with the launch of FX on Hulu and therefore the series became the first FX series with episodes available on Hulu by the next day.[41] In Bulgaria and Poland, the series airs on HBO Europe.[42][43] The series was formerly broadcast in Australia on Foxtel, via its broadcast network FOX One and on demand services until May 2022. It comes as Disney is looking forward to reclaiming its FX and 20th Television titles in order to stream them exclusively on the company’s service: Disney+. Breeders moved to Disney+ on June 1, 2022. Soon after Breeders Departed Foxtel and its Service, Season 3 moved to streaming on June 15, 2022, exclusively on Disney+ as a Star Original with new episodes airing on a weekly basis.Reception[edit]Critical response[edit]On the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has a score of 83% with an average score of 6.80\/10, based on 35 reviews. The website’s critics consensus reads, “A provocative addition to the growing slate of shows about parents behaving badly, Breeders‘ take on the realities of child-rearing are as hilarious as they are cringe-inducing.”[44]Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, has assigned the series a score of 65 out of 100 based on 13 critics, indicating “generally favorable reviews.”[45]Rotten Tomatoes gave the first second season a score of 100% with an average score of 8.00\/10, based on 7 reviews.[46]Accolades[edit]YearAwardCategoryNominee(s)ResultRef.2020Venice TV AwardsBest ComedyRob Aslett, Richard Allen-Turner, Simon Blackwell, David Martin, Jon Thoday, Martin Freeman, Chris Addison, Michael Wiggs, Toby Welch, Sophie MacClancy, Ben Palmer, Avalon TelevisionWon[47]2021BAFTA AwardsBritish Academy Television Award for Best Female Comedy PerformanceDaisy HaggardNominated[48]Hollywood Critics Association TV AwardsBest Cable Series, ComedyBreedersNominated[49][50]Best Actor in a Broadcast Network or Cable Series, ComedyMartin FreemanNominatedBest Actress in a Broadcast Network or Cable Series, ComedyDaisy HaggardNominated2022Young Artist AwardsBest Performance in a TV Series: Guest Starring Teen ArtistJordan A.
