Antarctica

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!

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.

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 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.

I think that the episode and actors developed very well and the drama was beutifull. The Actors make the episode more enjoyable like Sam's friends, its so funny.
