Alright, grab a coffee, get comfy, 'cause we're about to dive into the wonderfully weird world of Bobcat Goldthwait's "Misfits & Monsters". You know, that show that's like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get, but you know it's gonna be delightfully nuts.
So, who's in this wild ride?
Well, buckle up, 'cause we've got a cast that's as eclectic as they come. At the helm, we have our fearless leader, Bobcat Goldthwait himself. Now, if you're thinking, "Bobcat? Like the guy from 'Police Academy'?" Yes, indeed! But don't let that fool you. This cat's got a dark, twisted sense of humor that's all his own.
Now, let's talk about our misfits. We've got Michael Ian Black, who's basically the straight man in this circus. I mean, as straight as you can be in a show where people turn into werewolves and stuff. He's our narrator, our guide through the chaos. You might know him from "Wet Hot American Summer" or "The State".

Then there's Kumail Nanjiani. Yes, that Kumail. The one who wrote "The Big Sick" and made us all laugh and cry. Here, he's playing a version of himself, a struggling comedian who gets caught up in some... unusual situations. Trust me, you don't want to miss his stand-up routine in the first episode. It's a hoot!

And the monsters?
Oh, where do I even start? We've got Reese Witherspoon as a werewolf. Yes, you read that right. Oscar-winning Reese Witherspoon howling at the moon. It's as bizarre as it is brilliant. She's joined by Alia Shawkat, who plays her werewolf daughter. If you're a fan of "Arrested Development", you'll recognize her as Maeby Fünke. Here, she's all fangs and fur, and it's glorious.
We've also got Danny McBride as a vampire. Yes, that Danny McBride. The one who's made a career out of playing lovable idiots. Here, he's an immortal, blood-sucking idiot, and it's hilarious. He's joined by Elisha Cuthbert, who plays his vampire girlfriend. If you're a fan of "24", you'll recognize her as Kim Bauer. Here, she's all fangs and... well, still fangs, but it's a different kind of bite.

But wait, there's more!
We can't forget about the rest of the cast. We've got Brea Grant as a zombie, Jon Gabrus as a merman, and even Bobcat's real-life wife, Sarah Clark, playing a variety of roles. It's a who's who of comedy and horror, all rolled into one delightfully weird package.
So, there you have it. The cast of "Misfits & Monsters" is as varied and unpredictable as the show itself. It's a wild ride, folks. So, grab your popcorn, get ready to laugh, and let's dive in. Who knows what we'll find in this crazy, mixed-up world of Bobcat's creation?
