Big Mistakes is the first series from Levy under his overall TV deal with Netflix (he also has a first-look film deal at the streamer that yielded the 2023 movie Good Grief ). Netflix formally ordered the show in May as part of a batch of pickups at the upfronts.

Netflix revealed Big Mistakes will be the beloved Canadian creative's first series since his nine-time Emmy-winning (and 19-time Emmy-nominated) show, which starred Catherine O'Hara, his father Eugene Levy, Annie Murphy, and himself as a dysfunctional posh family forced to live in the quaint rural town of Schitt's Creek after losing their wealth.

When Dan Levy made Schitt’s Creek, he absolutely added a series to the list of the most rewatchable TV shows ever. So, I’m always curious what the actor/filmmaker has cooked up next. And, as it turns out, the clever talent is currently filming a new TV show for Netflix that absolutely seems to share some DNA with Schitt’s Creek. Let’s get into it.
