Starring and executive-produced by Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm (The Morning Show, Fargo, Mad Men), Grimsburg centers on Marvin Flute (Hamm), who may be the greatest detective ever to catch a cannibal clown and correctly identify a mid-century modern armoire. But there’s one mystery he still can’t crack — himself. To do that he must return to Grimsburg, a town where everyone has a secret or three, and redeem himself in the eyes of his fellow detectives, his ferocious ex-wife and his lovably unstable son. 

Following Grimsburg, Animation Domination continues with new episodes of Krapopolis (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT / 5:30-6:00 PM PT; Live to all time zones), Bob’s Burgers (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT) and the season four premiere of The Great North (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT). Grimsburg and The Great North make their time period premieres on Sunday, Feb. 18, as the night kicks off with all-new episodes of The Simpsons (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT) and Krapopolis (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT),  followed by The Great North (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT) and Grimsburg (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT).
