Andrew Law is an American television writer, producer, and actor known for his work in comedy television. He first gained recognition as a writer and actor on the NBC comedy series The Good Place, created by Michael Schur and broadcast from 2016 to 2020. In February 2026, Netflix announced that Law would serve as co-creator, co-showrunner, and star of the adult animated comedy series Dang!, alongside co-creator Matt Murray and executive producer Michael Schur.[1][2] With Dang!, Law takes on his first project as a series co-creator and lead voice performer.

Career

The Good Place

Andrew Law worked as a writer on the NBC comedy series The Good Place, which was created by Michael Schur and ran from 2016 to 2020. The series explored philosophical concepts of ethics and the afterlife through a comedic lens and earned substantial critical praise during its four-season run. Law contributed to the show's writing staff and also appeared on screen in an acting capacity, though the specific nature and extent of his on-screen role has not been detailed in published reporting.[1][3] His colleague Matt Murray also served as a writer on the series during its run.

The professional relationships built during The Good Place proved consequential. Law, Murray, and Schur later reunited on Dang!, with Schur serving in an executive producer role on the new project rather than as creator.[3]

Dang!

On February 19, 2026, Netflix announced it had ordered Dang!, an adult animated comedy series co-created by Law and Matt Murray, with Michael Schur attached as executive producer.[1][2] The order was reported the same day by Deadline, Variety, and The Hollywood Reporter, reflecting substantial industry interest given Schur's profile and the Good Place alumni connection.[1][2][3] No specific premiere date within 2026 was announced at the time of the order.[4]

Law and Murray serve as co-showrunners, overseeing the creative direction of the series together.[2][5] Law also voices a lead role in the series, making Dang! a project in which he works simultaneously as co-creator, co-showrunner, and performer.[1][6]

The voice cast includes Stephanie Hsu and Poppy Liu alongside Law.[2][6] Hsu received an Academy Award nomination for her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022). Animation for Dang! is being produced by Titmouse, a studio with extensive experience in adult animated programming.[4] The series adds to Netflix's growing slate of adult animated originals.[7]
