L-r: Judah Friedlander and Hank Azaria with Se Fija!’s Angela Ortíz
Bordertown is a new series created and written by Mark Hentemann (Family Guy-writer) and he’s executive producer along with Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy.
The series premieres Sunday, January 3 at 9:30P on FOX, voiced by the talents of Hank Azaria, Nicholas Gonzalez, Alex Borstein, Missi Pyle, and Judah Friedlander. Consulting producers include artist/political cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz (La Cucaracha) and editor/author Gustavo Arellano (¡Ask a Mexican!).
The comedy series explores family, politics and everything in between with a cross-cultural wink.
Bordertown centers on two clans: the Buckwalds and the Gonzalez’. Bud Buckwald is a married father of three and a Border Patrol agent who is just a tad behind the times and feels slightly threatened by the cultural changes transforming his neighborhood. He lives next door to Ernesto Gonzalez (Nicholas Gonzalez), an ambitious family man, who has been in the country less than 10 years, but is already doing better than Bud–which, it turns out, is a bit of an issue for Bud.

Judah Friedlander
Yahoo TV’s Robert Chan and I got the opportunity to interview Hank Azaria (Bud Buckwald), we talked about his impressive voice career and what he enjoys the most. Then I had a great conversation with Judah Friedlander, the voice of Sanford Buckwald. We talked about his thoughts on his character and his newest project, a book, If the Raindrops United: Drawings and Cartoons.
Now kick back and listen in on the conversations.
