When I first saw the title, I thought it was some weird spinoff/sequel of My Dad the Rock Star. But regardless, this one sounds really fun and interesting. Always up for some more outer-space cartoons featuring spaceships, aliens, robots, and whatnot.
"Detecting trace amounts of mental activity. Possibly a dead weasel or a cartoon viewer."The show is apparently coming out August 14, with 10 episodes that are about 22 minutes each.

Meanwhile, series creators Patrick Harpin And Everett Downing shared some insights with Cartoon Brew
on how they pitched the series to Netflix.

A new Netflix series was announced called My Dad The Bounty Hunter. It's created by Everett Downing (director of Hair Love) and Patrick Harpin (a Sony storyboard artist, but he's also written for Clarence). The premise is as follows:
"Per the show’s official logline, “My Dad the Bounty Hunter” is an action-comedy show that “follows the toughest bounty hunter in all the galaxy, a man with razor-sharp skills but also a secret – his family on Earth has no idea what he does for a living. So when his two kids accidentally hitch a ride into outer space and crash his latest mission, they discover that their average Dad’s job is anything but boring. Dodging dangerous aliens and laser fights galore, this family bonding time goes to the extreme. Wait until mom finds out…”
The show stars Russell Hornsby, Yvonne Orji, Priah Ferguson, Yvette Nicole Brown, Je Cobi Swain, Leslie Uggams, Rob Riggle, and Jim Rash.
