'Childrens Hospital' Renewed For Season 7 Under Adult Swim; Rob Corddry Reveals Series Is Inspired By 'The State'

“Childrens Hospital” has been renewed for a seventh season by Adult Swim. The network has recently put in an order for the Emmy-winning comedy created by Rob Corddry.

In a statement, Rob Corddry shared that he was thrilled that "Childrens Hospital" season 7 is happening.

"I'm happy. After our season six cliff hanger, people will be dying for us to turn our backs on the notion of series continuity even more," he said.

It was reported that the cast will start filming season 7 this summer. The series has won two Emmys for best short-format live-action entertainment program. It premiered as a web series in 2008 before Adult Swim picked it up in 2010.

The Hollywood Reporter described "Childrens Hospital" as a series that "examines the emotional struggles and sexual politics of a group of doctors whose dedication to their patients is only surpassed by their dedication to ... their own personal lives."

On Esquire, Rob Corddry revealed his inspiration behind the hit series.

"'Childrens Hospital' is largely due to my influence from guys like 'The State.' David Wain is an executive producing partner with me. He's taught me a lot about the kind of comedy that makes me laugh. I basically built the cast and show about good times," he shared.

"I take every season [of 'Childrens Hospital'] as its own separate entity, because the format allows. Last season we went to Japan, supposedly," he added. "We can do it. We get an average of 1.4 million viewers. People who watch, live. That's better than network shows. As long as that number hovers around a few points, I'll keep doing this until I die. If I start to get the message and people are over it, we'll kill it. But in season eighty, I'm 124 and still alive. By then, we're all superheroes anyway, so the sky is the limit."
