Mulligan is an American animated apocalyptic sitcom created by Sam Means and Robert Carlock for Netflix. It premiered on May 12, 2023. Part 2 was released on May 24, 2024.

The regular supporting cast includes Mulligan's girlfriend, a female "super scientist", a historian who became the right-hand man of the president, a reactionary senator who serves as the self-appointed vice-president and aims to revive humanity's past, and a captive alien general who remains on Earth as a prisoner of war.
