Chad Powers: O Quarterback

Glen Powell is terrific in Chad Powers. He's terrific in just about everything he does but this really stands out as one of his best performances. Chad Powers is about a disgraced college quarterback (Powell) who disguises himself as Chad Powers on a bad football team to try to revive his football career. What follows is a very entertaining and fun series that you'll have a hard time to stop watching it. This show knows what it wants to be and doesn't try to be anything else. If you're looking for a fun new show that you'll have a good time watching then give Chad Powers a try...you won't be disappointed.

I am not a football fan, but I am a huge fan of off-beat, quirky humour that's physical and has a message. Glen Powell is the embodiment of all of that and carries this show seamlessly. The supporting cast, especially Steve Zahn and Perry Mattfeld, work a magic that is seldom seen in comedy. This is pure joy to watch, and it invigorates the soul in a subtle, yet poignant way. Long may this unexpected gem continue!

I've laughed out loud more times watching the first three episodes of this show than I have watching any other show since East Bound & Down. Glen Powell's ability to transform from Russ Holliday into Chad Power's and back, is as impressive as it is funny. Great cast overall, incredibly funny show. Cannot wait until the next episode.

This one's a touchdown.

Comedy is hard, but this one works. Funny characters, with good dialogue. Cinematography with great colors, photography that you can enjoy, and with real acting. And... no brown/blue color coding, with dull lighting.

Everyone in this series is playing a character that in the context of the story is serious and believable, and it was a long time since I saw that in a new series.

It also respect the viewer and don't force any morals or preaching down the viewers throat. Thank you for that. For once I want more!

Chad Powers is what we all needed. The funny thing is just like Ted Lasso, this was based on a real ESPN gag and the world is all the better for it. Glen Powell absolutely crushes it as Chad. I've found myself belly laughing numerous times. The supporting cast is also outstanding. I will be looking forward to Tuesday nights just to watch this. May be my favorite show of the year. If you need an uplifting comedy look no further than Chad Powers.
