The Stephen Silver Animation Hour (featuring Fred the Ostrich & His Pals)

 was a prime-time hour-long anthology TV series that debuted on MYNetworkTV in April 12, 2019. It featured Stephen Silver (creator of assorted Fred the Ostrich characters and character designer of Kim Possible and Danny Phantom) in a computer-generated room with three creatures from After Man: The Zoology of the Future called a woolly gigantelope, desert leaper, and night-stalker.

Each episode showed an updated Fred the Ostrich segment similar to what was The Fred the Ostrich Show in the show's first half, called "OstrichTV", featuring a mix of classic Fred the Ostrich characters (Fred, Donald, Hippo Potamus, Ralph, Milton the Mouse from "The Tale of the Mouse Picnic"...) and new ones (a humanoid robot technical director named Fidget, a purple dinosaur-like character named Dion, Fred's humanoid assistant named Stacy, a rat maintenance worker named Limburger, and members of the Ink & Paint house band consisting of Fidget on keyboard, a lizard-like bassist named Buford, a hairy guitarist named Hair, a humanoid saxophonist named Lash, and a not-yet-named female drummer...). The second half mostly showed episodes of After Man: The Zoology of the Future and sometimes half-hour specials.

The short-lived series aired over the course of four months in 2019. During this time, a total of nine episodes (out of twelve produced in total) aired on MyNetworkTV, before the low-rated series was cancelled on July 28, 2019.
