A wide range of celebrities have also appeared, like Don Cheadle, Edgar Wright, Jim Rash, and Paget Brewster, just to name a few.
Co-executive producer and writer of the show Frank Angones took to Twitter on Thursday to drop the bombshell news. Angones tweeted out the upcoming episode schedule, as can be seen below.
The hour long special titled “Let’s Get Dangerous!“ will feature the fan favorite Darkwing Duck. The show starring the immensely popular character ran for 91 episodes from 1991-1992.
