Bless the Harts<\/em> may already have the distinction of being part of Fox’s already impressive slate of animated comedies, but there’s one other element that gives the show a leg up on all the other shows: Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph. <\/p>\n

The former SNL<\/em> and Bridesmaids<\/em> costars play mother and daughter on the new Fox comedy, which follows a Southern family that is always broke, but rich “in friends, family, and laughter.” <\/p>\n

In two exclusive new videos, Rudolph and Wiig give us a little insight into their characters. Wiig plays Jenny, the center of the family, a single working mom who loves a boxed wine and speaking to Jesus. <\/p>\n

“Jenny, I think, is just trying to keep it together and run this household,” Wiig says. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

While Jenny’s busy keeping things together, her mother Betty is a little more free to get her drink on, make bad choices, and invest in scratch-off lotto tickets. <\/p>\n

“The relationship is really interesting because she gets on Jenny’s nerves for sure but they’re super, super close,” Wiig says, and as Rudolph points out, this a relationship she and Wiig could only really make work in animation. <\/p>\n

“If we were doing this show in front of a live audience, I wouldn’t get to play Kristen’s mom,” Rudolph says. “I love that you can be anything in animation.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The show was created by Emily Spivey<\/strong> along with Phil Lord<\/strong> and Chris Miller<\/strong> as executive producers, and it also stars Ike Barinholtz<\/strong> as Jenny’s boyfriend and Jillian Bell<\/strong> as Jenny’s daughter, Violet. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
