Big Boys

"That feeling you get when you start a new series and you like it from the beginning and then it just keeps getting better and better? What, one out of 50? That was this for me. Based on comedian Jack Rooke’s semi-autobiographical stage show about his first year of college, what makes this special is the cast. I fell in love with every one of them. Especially the mom. Hilarious and heartbreaking, uplifting and heartwarming. I cried through almost the entire season one finale. Probably best though if you don’t watch it with your kids or your parents. "

"season 1 was great but season 2 solidified this as a show that will truly stick with me. i was initially hesitant bc of the narration but it’s extremely well done and just makes it seem like a vulnerable and thoughtful retelling of a person’s life. and like he’s reliving it and healing along the way :’) it’s gorgeous. it’s hilarious! the character dynamics are so fun to watch. jack & danny’s friendship at the core is precious. it’s also comforting to watch as i traverse through college myself.
