A galaxy-hopping single dad discovers that fatherhood and freelance bounty hunting were never meant to mix once his two kids stow away on his ship. "My Dad the Bounty Hunter" turns a routine job into a family emergency spread across the stars.
What is My Dad The Bounty Hunter about?
The animated series follows a bounty hunter whose latest assignment goes sideways the moment his children sneak aboard his cruiser and derail the mission. What was meant to be a clean, solo job becomes a scramble to protect his kids while alien crews, rival hunters, and the fallout of a botched capture all close in around them. The show leans into slapstick chase sequences and oddball alien worlds, using the kids' presence to force its hero into choices he would never make while working alone. Each episode widens the map a little further, introducing new ports, new dangers, and new reasons the family can't simply turn the ship around and go home.
About the cast
Laz Alonso voices the title character, with Yvonne Orji, Priah Ferguson, and JeCobi Swain filling out the family at the center of the chaos. Yvette Nicole Brown, Jim Rash, Leslie Uggams, and Rob Riggle round out the supporting cast of allies and adversaries the crew meets across the galaxy.
Context & significance
Directed by Everett Downing Jr. and produced as a French-American co-production, the series arrived in 2023 aimed at family audiences who want their science fiction served with comedy first. It fits the wider trend of animated shows built around a mismatched, on-the-run family unit, with the bounty-hunting premise giving each half-hour episode a built-in reason to keep moving.
