Sprung

This was a very intelligently done comedy with goofy lovable characters. Lately there is dearth of comedy shows, but smart comedies have reached a point of extinction. Couple that with so many dumb shows with laughter tracks and racism. The camera style and the look makes it look very cheap (maybe it is), but the execution and the story just blows it our of the park.

It takes us to the crazy parts at the start of the Pandemic and explores different themes. Whoever wrote it and directed it is going on my watch list.

Sprung is all about lovable ex-convicts who are forced to bond together due to the lack of opportunities and the Pandemic with a Robinhood twist thrown in. Highly recommend it.

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 loved it! Genuine humor, adventure, heartfelt moments. It has everything. Humor really stands out among other hundreds of series that only trying to seem funny. Could be the best project from Gregory Thomas Garcia yet. It was a joy to see Garret Dillahunt and Martha Plimpton working together again. Lets hope the rest of the season holds the same level of goodness.

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.

I was referred this by my friend and found my brother watching it so I jumped in and watched with him. I'm glad I did because it was great. It stars a bunch of unknown actors outside of Garret Dillahunt (Justified, Fear the Walking Dead, Deadwood, etc.). Like another review already pointed out, it has the same feel as My Name Is Earl. The show is about a guy named Jack (Dillahunt) who recently gets paroled with his cellmate Rooster (Phillip Garcia) and he goes to live with Rooster and his mom, Barb (Martha Plimlton). The woman (Shakira Barrera) he was flirting with in prison also gets paroled and goes to live with the three of them. Jack wants to go straight and become a teacher but gets pulled in by the others and the four of them then use their criminal expertise to rip off bad people and do some good. This all takes place at the start of the pandemic, which makes for a very funny setting.
