Mr. Throwback

One of the best shows of the summer! Steph was surprisingly good. Looking forward to watching a second season. The characters need to live on.

My favorite part of the show was the ending. Watching how everything unfolds is great.

My only criticism of the show was that six episodes seemed like not enough time to get really get to know every character. I want more of everyone and everything.

That's all I got. I hope this review helps people want to watch the show because it truly is one of the best shows of the summer and the cast is unbelievable. They are laugh out loud funny. And show has heart which is important in todays world.

Stephen Curry (Stephen Curry) recounts an often-forgotten part of basketball history, the Jewish Jordan, to a documentary crew. As a kid, Steph was second banana to his best friend, 12 year old basketball point guard star Danny Grossman (Adam Pally). Then the scandal hits. It was revealed that Danny's father and coach Mitch Grossman (Tracy Letts) had lied about his age. After 25 years, Mitch reconnects with Steph. Kimberly Gregg (Ego Nwodim) is the third member of the childhood trio and she presently works for Steph. Danny has a dysfunctional relationship with Sam Judlow (Ayden Mayeri) and they have daughter Charlie (Layla Scalisi) together. Danny needs $90k and tells a big lie about Charlie. It spirals out of control.

I do not like this family. The lie is stupid. These are bad people. It makes the comedy hard to like. In the past, I like some of Adam Pally's idiocy. It is funny when his schemes fail and he gets ridiculed. It is not funny when it works and he gets his way. I get the idea. I'm just not laughing.

I really like this show too a lot I can't stop watching it yeah I know I see a lot of mixed reviews about Steph Curry's acting a lot of people saying he's a bad actor but some saying he's a good actor they're saying he needs to stick to basketball is saying he don't have no future in acting but after basketball he's going to probably want to do more acting and get more opportunities but I think he did good even though he played himself but his acting was good he did his thing but I would like to see a season 2 And for athletes who tried acting he got to be at least in the top 10 but I know acting he should do in the off-season and just focus on the NBA season.

Given the lack of promotion around this show, I went in with pretty low expectations. But after watching all six episodes, I would definitely recommend it--particularly if you're a fan of Happy Endings, the prior collaboration of Adam Pally and David Caspe. While it doesn't have quite as high of a joke per minute ratio as that show, it has a similar sensibility and many clever set-ups and payoffs. Steph Curry isn't an actor, obviously, but is surprisingly charming here. And major props to the casting director for finding Layla Scalisi. There are so many shows that have been hampered by less than great child actors, but she is genuinely hilarious in her role. I really hope this one gets a second season.

I watched this show just because I'm a Steph fan and didn't expect much because, let's face it, athletes usually suck at acting... but I thoroughly enjoyed this show. Every episode had at least one laugh-out-loud moment, and even though the arc was predictable, the show still pulled it off nicely.

That said, Steph is my new favorite NBA Player/Actor. Lebron was funny in Trainwreck, Ray Allen was solid in He Got Game, Kareem was iconic in Bruce Lee's Game of Death, Kyrie was decent in Uncle Drew, and I have to give an honorable mention to Shaq for all the effort in his flicks... but Steph killed it in Mr. Throwback.
