It's Florida, Man

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.

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!

Being from my the UK we've heard that you can Google Florida man and on any day there's a crazy story. Although I've not done it personal, I do rel over my son showing me, hence why I was pretty much sold in giving it a go.

Then to see the names of cast, production I was and still am enthused to see the next crazy true story, being told but those people involved which helps you believe it's a true story because the comical reconstructions can make you forget that it's not just a story and that it really happened. I've only seen a few episodes but I have been raving about the show to anybody who'll hear me!

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.

Prefacing this with the fact that I have watched only one episode and won't be bothering with any more.

So what does this have to do with Florida? Maybe one or more of these stupid people live in Florida...so what? Stupid people are everywhere. Stupid stories are everywhere. I would have named this show "Stupid Stories - Stupid People".

I was really hoping for stories that might be exclusive to Florida, which in itself is a pretty unique place. Gators, Cubans, Mickey Mouse, Canadians.

This show just makes Florida seem the same as everywhere else. I could have watched "It's Idaho, Man" and probably learned something about potatoes.

Don't waste your time, watch Jackass instead.
