History
edit
The company was founded in April 2008 by producer and writer Michael Schur.[citation needed] The name "Fremulon" comes from the fake insurance company that Schur's pseudonym, Ken Tremendous, worked at when he was writing for the sports blog Fire Joe Morgan, [1] a near pun on the anatomical term frenulum. The production logo displayed at the end of Fremulon produced shows is accompanied by the word "Fremulon" spoken by actor Nick Offerman.[2]
In March 2019, Fremulon renewed its overall deal at Universal Television.[3]
