Billy Dilley's Super-Duper Subterranean Summer is an upcoming American animated television series, set to premiere on Disney XD in Summer 2017. It is created and executive-produced by Aaron Springer, an animation veteran whose extensive credits include working on SpongeBob SquarePants, Samurai Jack, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, Gravity Falls and the current run of Mickey Mouse shorts. Springer was also behind the Adult Swim pilot Korgoth of Barbaria.
The show follows the adventures of Billy Dilley (Aaron Springer), a 7th grader who loves science, and his lab partners, Zeke (Tom Kenny) and Marsha (Catie Wayne), who on summer vacation find themselves trapped in a strange world located in the Earth's core.
The show was first announced in 2014 as a potential pilot. In March 2016, it was confirmed that Disney XD has greenlit the show for a full series.
In 2015, Merriwether Williams was confirmed in a Twitter post by Vincent Waller as one of the show's writers, whilst Character designer Robertryan Cory announced on his Tumblr page he has been working on the series since December 2014, just over a year before the pickup was officially announced.
