It's Florida, Man

When I saw that Danny McBride was an executive producer this whole 27 minutes made sense. The interviews being repeated by actors is an old trick. God knows the show would not lead with it's best episode. Florida does have it's idiots much like every other state. We will see what the remaining episodes bring us, but if it Danny McBride expect a lot of gore and nonsense.

Even my my young son came out of his room to say, "what the hell am I watching?"

And he loves everything.

I see what were going for but they missed on episode 1. There are thousands of stories about Florida due to the Freedom of information Act. My favorite is the man in Naples who raised rattlesnakes in his apartment.

How much you enjoy this ultra-wacky show depends on how willing you are to watch ordinary people being held up to ridicule for doing extraordinarily stupid things. Told in docu-com style, real-life Floridians are interviewed on camera about their brushes with idiocy while alternating segments starring actors and comics bring their demented deeds to life. Each thirty-minute episode (although the stories move swiftly enough that they tend to seem much shorter) is bizarre, irreverent, cringeworthy enough that you'll want to avert your eyes, and so focused on the worst (or nearly the worst) of humanity that you may want to shout or throw something at the screen. Not a great show but certainly an entertaining one--even if the good folks of Florida may not always get the joke.

This is obviously over-exaggerated mindless entertainment. Likely VERY, VERY loosely based in truth. Ridiculous shock and awe storytelling simply for the purpose of entertaining. I admit though, the intro is fantastic. I would absolutely recommend this if you are just looking for some unique/interesting storytelling to kill some time.

I meant to watch when released nice that there's currently 3 episodes it seems IMDb doesn't update upcoming ones anymore. It's Florida Man is quite wild, goofy, and a little bit of horror vibes unexpected from HBO I love it though! Reminds me of Room 104 that series was full of bizarre stuff mashed in different creators; it's a lovely mix of screwball behavior and a little bit of mtv reality style with better directing. Breaking the 4th wall is nicely captivating/intriguing great how there's true stuff with entertainment value awesome how actors play alternate versions of characters that look fairly similar. I understand the ratings it's a little cheesy yet awesomeness!

The stories themselves are entertaining enough, and the reenactments by various comedians and actors are just a bonus. It harkens back to Drunk History on Comedy Central in its adaptation of the personal stories and narration of the first hand accounts.

The show brings in outside parties like animal experts to enhance the stories.

The Floridians themselves seem proud of the "Florida Man" colloquialism, and they are excited to share their contributions to the stereotypes. Some of the segments are actually quite wholesome since the story tellers are excited and a little proud to tell their tales and earn their place in "Florida Man" history.
