Fox has also shared a number of guest stars for the new season, including Ken Jeong (reuniting with his old Community co-star McHale) as expert (and unhinged) dog trainer Roman Park, Sarah Chalke (Scrubs) as Yazmin, a love interest from Frank's past, and Krystal Smith (Welcome to Flatch), who will recur as Bettany, Emily's assistant.
Animal Control season 2 plot
Fox describes the plot of Animal Control as following "a group of local Animal Control workers whose lives are complicated by the fact that animals are simple, but humans are not."
All we know about Animal Control season 2 is this one line that Fox included in one of its press releases: "Season two ushers in mating season — for both the animals and the officers who protect them."
