Future Man

This show is great. Starts out strong, weakens in season 2, then concludes well in season 3. It feels very unique, sometimes alienating but it's too irreverent to get offended by. Watch this if you're bored with the usual stuff and are craving something very weird and surprising.

Just finished season 1, it was totally awesome and fun watching. I had watched all the episodes continuously till the end of season 1, so there were moments i felt it's not moving forward at the same pace but after the ending i definitely felt good. It was totally satisfying to watch.

Edit: Ow season 2 was on a whole different level. This season focused more on the exploration of all the lead characters, their strength, weakness and more weaknesses. So the plot development was reasonably slow and also everything about this timeline of future, Mars, anything made no sense. It's like they waste too much time on building up. The last episode was great and ended with a mindblowing cliffhanger.

Edit: Yeah, season 3 is great. All those historical figures living in eternity sounds like utopia. This very idea is funny though. At last the explosion of base on true story is what made it hilariously funny.

Since i watched it to spend my time and have fun and not for absolute logic, it's worth it. To be honest, time travelling itself doesn't make sense.

Future Man was so much better than I expected it to be. It literally had me laughing out loud several times per episode. It's about the love of a boring janitor named Josh Futterman (Joel Hutcherson) whose entire life is playing video games. When he beats an unbeatable game some mysterious visitors from the future show up (Derek Wilson and Eliza Coupe). They say the world is in danger and Josh is the only one who can save it. He travels through time with them as they do everything they can save Earth from aliens trying to take over. I promise that if you give this show a chance you will not be sorry! It's not the best comedy series I've ever seen but it's definitely one of the more underrated comedies I've ever seen.

Half the reviews hated it for being too SJW, and the other half hated it for being too insensitive and dudebro comedy. I don't know what timeline I'm in anymore, but this is a great show so far. My only complaint was the use of a joystick in a video game, but at this point, I'm pretty sure that was ironic. For all you radical centrists out there, it's just a funny show. Enjoy.

My score is based on what the show is trying to be, which is loosely a sci-fi with a bunch of ridiculous inept characters. It's main gimmick is time travel utilized to stop a dystopia future from taking place. Two of our main protagonists, Tiger & Wolf, send a game back in time with the idea that the individual who beats it will be their savior. Right, like 'The Last Starfighter', which the main character Hutchinson immediately points out which should cue you in as to what kind of show you're in for.

The rest is bumbling through time making mistake after mistake creating wide ranging ripples changing the lives of those connected to these characters. Over the top violence from Tiger & Wolf, Hutchinson trying his best to keep up and often times even leading. All the while there's subtle hints, jokes, and puns about other types of shows and movies involving time travel. There's even a whole episode about James Cameron poking fun at the Alien and Terminator franchises.

First and foremost this is a comedy so don't expect any hard science fiction. Yes it's crude, absurd, silly, weird, and never for a second takes itself seriously, but that's why I personally liked it and would definitely watch another season.
