Mr. Throwback

I will start off with these for context: 1) yes I'm an Adam Pally fan (Mindy project, happy endings, anything else he is in I've liked), 2) I LOVE Ego! How could you not - she is hilarious on SNL and shines in this 3) how can you not be a fan of Steph Curry?! Precious. 4) cringe comedy tends to always have me DYING - aka I loved The Curse, Nathan for You, and Jury Duty. All of which So I'm here for shows like this in general.

Like one other reviewer said - it's interesting this wasn't promoted much - why?! - I only came across it from browsing on Peacock only. My boyfriend and I binged the entire (short) season in one night.

If you like Adam's other stuff, current SNL, or other cringe comedy, this is for you. If you dislike him, can't stand satire or self-deprecating humor, pass on it and don't bash this show or the cast and crew just because it's not your thing.

I literally fell down laughing a few times. Some of the lines or reactions are hilarious. Wait for the "gifts are my love language" line! The Mocktails! I could not hold it together watching those scenes 🤣 The whole cast, including the daughter and the crazy father, brings something funny to the show.

It's such a random pairing but it worked. I'm hoping for another season, if only for laughs and more cringe.

I was genuinely invested in the idea of this show from its ads on Peacock and figured "Hey, why not? Let's see what Curry's up to." I was expecting a comedic show that would touch upon the intricacies of Curry's fame and success - - the things we don't see or often think about. I imagined continuous laughs and a decent, dare I say thrilling, plot line.

I was wrong.

This show is the epitome of what's wrong with modern television. Every dialogue was an opportunity to name drop some celebrity, brand, or pop culture reference I did not care about. The acting was just terrible. A mockumentary is no excuse for subpar delivery. The awkward moments weren't at all funny. They were just awkward.

The first episode was whatever. I ended up giving the show another chance but ultimately couldn't finish the second episode because there was nothing good. Can you imagine? A cast like that, all the cameos, all the resources for a sorry show. I'm heavily disappointed at how shallow Mr. Throwback is. If you're materialistic, obsessed with pop culture, and entertained by bad acting, this show's for you. For literally everyone else, save your time and move along.

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.

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.

But, I'm SO over these thin outline teleplays, jusv have em improv a bunch of takes and see what sticks - it's SO LAZY and it's always SO OBVIOUS - So how can we convey to the powers that be, that we want well thought teleplays and screenplays - oiled and polished thru writers rooms, table reads, rehearsals WHATEVER just not endless improvisation - I realize it's cheaper and easier for them to make but maybe if Lorne Michael's stop bankrolling all his veteran snl'ers for these moon shot shows (Keenan anyone? Peeyew! And that was one of the most talented comedians in the game) JUST DO IT CORRECTLY! Cause it stinks to high heaven and the golden age of TV has become the much patina'd copper, and that's being generous

Steph was ok and I'm also not a sports fan other than F1 so I wasn't biased (like I was with Pally, no PAL of mine I tells you)
