The American version of Creature Comforts will start airing on CBS June 4, it has been confirmed.
The show will sit at the start of the network's primetime lineup in an 8pm half-hour slot on Mondays. The stop-motion animated series is based on Aardman Animation's original short film.
In a statement, CBS said: "In upcoming episodes, interviews with hundreds of ordinary Americans from across the United States cover a variety of subjects, such as the trials and tribulations of doctor's visits and being sick, what animal magnetism is and what they look for in a mate, as well as the truth about lies and what it takes to keep a secret. Told through the mouths of animated animals, insects and other un-human species, they reveal their thoughts in a new and distinct way: an older married couple listing their ailments as portrayed by two lovebirds, the couple who talk about their great height difference as portrayed by two dachshunds, and two men who seem to be examining the bouquet of a fine wine as portrayed by two dogs sniffing, well, another dog."
