I had a check and nobody seems to have mentioned this awesome show yet.

It's packed with Fortean references. The primary setting (The Mystery Shack) is a third-rate Ripley's. Cryptids galore - lake monsters, a Fiji Mermaid, a jackalope, Manotaurs and even Bat Boy gets a nod... Ghosts, gnomes, zombies, a fake psychic... If you can, watch it. Binge watch it. Catch fleeting glimpses of things in scenes, pause your player, rewind and go "Oh cool reference!".
 
Netflix is set to add another adult animated show to its burgeoning slate, Variety as confirmed.

The streamer has put out a series order of “Inside Job” from “Gravity Falls” and “Disenchantment” writer Shion Takeuchi. The show will be the first series Takeuchi produces under her recently-signed overall deal with Netflix.

The 20-episode adult animated series will be produced at Netflix Animation and is described as a workplace comedy set in the shadow government, where every conspiracy theory — from the Illuminati to Reptoids — is true, and one woman struggles to keep the chaos under wraps.

“Gravity Falls” creator Alex Hirsch will co-executive produce the show.

“I’m beyond excited for the opportunity Netflix has given me to finally expose the inner workings of the deep state. To celebrate, I just ordered a fresh ball of red yarn for our conspiracy board,” said Takeuchi.
