Psi Cops (French: Psi Cops: Escouade Paranormale) is a Canadian adult animated television series that premiered on Adult Swim in Canada on June 5, 2023. The series is created by and starring Bart Batchelor and Chris Nielsen, who previously hosted Night Sweats and co-created the web series World Doctors and Daddy and the Big Boy for Mondo Media. Psi Cops is the first original series made specifically for the Canadian Adult Swim network, as previous originals were initially made for either Teletoon at Night or Télétoon la nuit.

The series follows Kydd (Nielsen) and Felixx (Batchelor), the top detectives at the paranormal investigation agency Psi Cops, solving supernatural mysteries in spite of their overall incompetence. The series was later picked up by the American Adult Swim block which began airing the show on July 8, 2024.[1] The series has yet to be renewed for a second season.

Psi Cops is produced by Wind Sun Sky Entertainment, Skybound Galactic and Oddfellows Labs in association with Corus Entertainment, with animation support by Smiley Guy Studios. Sony Pictures Television serves as a distributor to the series.

Production

The series was first pitched after David Alpert, the CEO of Skybound Entertainment, discovered World Doctors and asked creators Bart Batchelor and Chris Nielsen for a "genre" version of the series. The duo pitched several ideas before hitting on the idea of "[The X-Files'] Mulder and Scully, but replaced with two morons." Batchelor states that it took 6 years from those initial pitches for the series to be officially greenlit by Corus.[3]

Scripts for the series are unusually long, with Batchelor stating that he and Nielsen can write as much as 45 pages for a single 11 minute episode's script, before trimming it down to around 26 or 27 pages. The show's animation is produced by Smiley Guy Studios in Toronto, using a mix of Daz 3D, Adobe After Effects, and Adobe Animate to animate fully 3D models mainly on a 2D plane that can be turned into full 3D for action scenes.[4]

Broadcast

Psi Cops premiered on Adult Swim in Canada on June 4, 2023, with two back-to-back episodes at 12:30 a.m. ET, and it was available on the Global app and the StackTV package on Amazon Prime Video.[5] It also premiered on the Télétoon la nuit block on Télétoon under the title Psi Cops: Escouade Paranormale.

The series was first released in the United States on YouTube as part of the Throwback Toons channel (where it is no longer available), and later made a television debut on Cartoon Network's nighttime block Adult Swim at 12:00 a.m. ET on July 8, 2024.[1] It was also released exclusively on the Sony Liv streaming service in India. The distributor of the series was Sony Pictures Television.
