Antarctica

I really enjoyed the first episode and it is a great start to the series. The episode introduces very well the main characters: an overprotective mother, a father that wants to be closer to his son and sister that proyecta his brother.

I think that the title was well Chosen because Sam talks all the time about Antartica and penguins.

I think that the episode shows autism in a very realistic way I think that some parts are innapropiate for little kids I think that it is a great episode and I would recommend it.

First of, how the episode starts. In the start you can easily recognize how sam life is, pinguins being his comfort thing is very clever and I rlly liked how they could associate pinguins with humans (sometimes it's hilarious)

Loved the characters and their personality's, honestly in this first episode it looks like the world revolves around Sam, but then everybody gets their own problems and own perspectives. Actors and actrices were great.

I Think that this episode is not the best of the serie but Is a great first episode,it defines perfectly the characters.

I only watched the first season and i can say that my favorite characters are:the father and sam's sister i think that are the two that their live Is not around the sam's autism.

The only thing that i don't like Is all the stereotypes of the autism.

I really liked this chapter and how it introduced us to Sam's daily life and it's really great that we get to see how he struggles with "common things" that most people of his age do (like dating) and I liked that they show us his way of "seeing life" and thinking.

Although the characters were well developed the parent's acting was not that good and I didn't liked them. I really liked Zahid's and Cassie's roles.

This episode was really good and capturing, i'm interested about how the show is going to continue!!

I loved the pilot episode of Atypical. It does a great job of introducing Sam and his daily navigation through life while being surrounded by neuro normative people. The show communicates autism in a very realistic way which I appreciate. I especially appreciate how this episode of Atypical depicts Sam's family. He has a father that struggles to connect with him, as they have nothing in common. He has an overprotective mother that fears him trying new things as she is afraid of the risk that comes along with it. He has a sister whose entire personality is shaped by her need to protect not only her brother but other people that are mistreated. Atypical shows how the world of autism shapes family life and communicates that in a way many people can empathize with. Autism not only affects the autistic person, but also the people around them. Atypical demonstrates this to the fullest extent in the debut episode. In under 45 minutes, it is able to set the tone for the entire series. I have no complaints! Looking forward to watching more!
