... but WITH Martha Plimpton, it becomes "must watch".
Seriously, this is one of the funniest shows in a while, but Ms. Plimpton's character takes it over the top. I can't imagine anybody else playing Barb this great.
That said, "Rooster" Phillip Garcia is the second highlight for me. His antics, though sometimes over the top, made me chuckle more than once.
Fingers crossed for a second season with the same writers and director.
Still not 600 characters? Seriously IMDB, not every review needs to be that verbose to say what a show is about. This is about Sprung, the show Sprung, Sprung ist the name of the show until 600 characters are reached.
Talking about stupid rules, this is one of them.

I'm actually quite surprised by how much I like Sprung. I was recently looking for something mindless that I could watch when I was on the treadmill and didn't have to pay close attention and found this. I not only watched it when I was on the treadmill but it was so good I didn't want to wait to the next day to watch another episode so I watched a few more after I got done. The next thing I know I binged the entire season over the course of a weekend. It kind of sucks that it's only a limited series and they're only doing one season. It had a nice ending but I still think they could do more with it if they wanted to. I hope they change their minds and do at least one more season!
I had no idea what this was going to be like. The first two episodes were unexpectedly funny with a few truly touching scenes. Martha Plimpton is at her hilarious, face-contorting best playing a sleazy mother of a con released from prison early due to CV-19. He brought two other cons home with him with no place to go. Of course, cons will be cons so petty crimes ensue. This is a keeper!
It was just the other night I was thinking about "the guest book" and missing shows like Earl and I was craving something similar that I came across this show and couldn't be happier.
Thanks to Greg Garcia for putting out another show with his signature style of comedy. I really needed a show like this and I am looking forward to more episodes.

Hilarious trip down a short Memory Lane, Sprung seems to combine the style of the 70's with the angst of the Corona Virus. Think Raising Hope combined with the rustic Pittsburg vibe and you get the setting for a funny 4 person crime spree.
