Half-boy, half-deer?!?
Sounds weird, but from the brief teaser trailer it looks like it might
be worth trying as a sort-of X-Men meets Zoo (it even has the big black
guy from Zoo in it). Plus it's "family-friendly", so no piles of lazy swearing and pointless sex scenes to fill up screen time.

Described as a family-friendly storybook adventure,
Sweet Tooth follows the story of Gus - part deer, part
boy - who leaves his home in the forest to find the
outside world ravaged by a cataclysmic event. He joins
a ragtag family of humans and animal-children hybrids
like himself, searching for answers about this new
world and the mystery behind his hybrid origins.
The hour-long series stars Christian Convery (Beautiful
Boy, Playing With Fire) as Gus, Nonso Anozie (Game of
Thrones) as Tommy Jepperd, Adeel Akhtar (The Big Sick)
as Dr. Singh, and Will Forte (The Last Man on Earth) as
Gus's father along with James Brolin (Amityville
Horror, Westworld) as the voice of the narrator.
Joining them are Aliza Vellani, Stefania LaVie Owen,
Dania Ramirez, and Neil Sandilands,
"We wanted to make a show that offers escape and
adventure, where nature is reclaiming the world and in
many ways, it feels like a fairy tale," co-showrunner
and director Jim Mickle said in a statement. "Sweet
Tooth is a new kind of dystopian story. It's very lush
and hopeful. We want people to come into this world
where there's beauty and hope and adventure. This is a
sweeping story - we ride on trains, climb mountaintops,
run through forests. This is a show about what makes a
family, what home really means, and why it's important
to keep faith in humanity."
Sweet Tooth is created and directed by Jim Mickle from
a screenplay he co-wrote with Beth Schwartz (Arrow),
who are both serving as showrunners. Executive
producers are Mickle, Schwartz, Team Downey's Robert
Downey Jr., Susan Downey and Amanda Burrell; and Linda
Moran with Team Downey's Evan Moore set as a producer.
