Father of the Pride is an American animated sitcom created by Jeffrey Katzenberg and produced by DreamWorks Animation for NBC.
Father of the Pride follows a family of white lions, the patriarch of which stars in a Siegfried & Roy show in Las Vegas. Despite heavy promotion and support, the series was cancelled after one season due to declining ratings. Transmission and production were also delayed by the real-life on-stage injury of Roy Horn in October 2003.
