When does Napoleon Dynamite return?

Napoleon Dynamite originally aired on FOX
Jared and Jerusha Hess were co-writers and directors of the 2004 film Napoleon Dynamite. The series premiered on January 15, 2012, as a mid-season replacement for the animated series Allen Gregory. The premiere episode had a Nielsen rating of 9.5 million viewers, but the ratings later dropped and the last four episodes averaged only 4 million viewers. The show received mixed-to-negative reviews, with the slow pacing and humor receiving criticism.
The Hesses set the series towards the end of the Napoleon Dynamite film. In the film, set in the small town of Preston, Idaho, Napoleon (Jon Heder) is an awkward 16-year-old boy who loves practicing ninja moves, dancing, and drawing pictures of a liger, an animal he says is bred for its skills in magic.
