Smiling Friends is almost back, news sure to give smiles to its fans. Ahead of its season 2 premiere, it got a new preview showing the staff trying to help a classic video game character.

Smiling Friends is an animated adult comedy series created by Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack. The series follows the hectic lives of the employees of Smiling Friends Inc. as they do whatever it takes to make their customers happy. The show has quickly gained acclaim for its bizarre surreal black humor, and an amazing line-up of guest stars.

Season 2 will have a double-premiere on May 12 @ midnight on Adult Swim, and will be available to stream the next day on Max, where you can watch (or rewatch!) the first season.
