Comedy is completely subjective and this type of humour isn't going to be for everyone. There's a lot of raunchy stuff in this and it hits almost every juvenile note going down the scale. All I can say is that they do a good job presenting these jokes and finding a way to spin them to make them funny. There wasn't an episode in this show where I wasn't cackling over something and it completely worked for me.

Josh Hutcherson is the leading man in this show and he also produced it. He's showing growth as an actor and he does a good job of putting Peeta behind him. He doesn't give the strongest performance but he does a good enough job to keep the show moving from joke to joke. I wouldn't hand him an award but I still thought he was fine. Eliza Coupe and Derek Wilson round out the main cast as Tiger and Wolf respectively. Eliza steals scene after scene, she's a veteran comedienne and her delivery is excellent. That's not to sell Derek short either, he makes his character charming even though most of his dialogue is spoken either through growling or shouting. A lot of the best lines come from either him or Eliza lecturing Josh about what happens in their time. The supporting cast all perform capably: Ed Begley Jr. and Glenne Headley are both fun as Josh's relentlessly supportive parents. Seeing Keith David in something is always a treat and I also liked Haley Joel Osment, he went all out and he was fun as Dr. Stu Camillo.

I don't have too many negative things to say about this. If you're a time-travel purist, the show doesn't explain time travel flawlessly like other sci-fi properties. They take every opportunity to make fun of the fact that they're nonsensical about it. The other complaint was that the show lacks top notch production value. It doesn't bring down the show but you're not dealing with the set construction, costuming or special effects of something like The Orville or Star Trek: Discovery.

I'm always looking for something fresh coming out of science fiction and if it can make me laugh, it makes it that much better. Luckily, Future Man delivers on both fronts. If they can make another season out of this, I'd be happy to watch it. This was a surprise and its always great to discover something outside of the hype. If you like R-rated comedy with some sci-fi satire, this might be up your alley.
