Review of Sprung

Sprung (2022– )
9/10
TV Needed New Greg Garcia!
21 August 2022
This series is off to a great start! If you're a fan of Garcia, (My Name Is Earl, Raising Hope, Yes, Dear, The Guest Room) you'd know this was a Greg Garcia joint right off the bat.

It's also nice to see Dillahunt & Plimpton (Burt & Virginia Chance from Raising Hope) back together. Their chemistry is undeniable. Plimpton's character, Barb ("like the wire with the sharp needles on it") is so over the top, it's hilarious watching Martha just run with it. Philip Garcia's Rooster is the guy to watch, that character is a riot!

The premise is brilliant and similar to Earl, without being derivative. The set up for each episode opens the door for a slew of guest stars and could lead to an enjoyable and lengthy timeline.

This is seriously one of the best new comedies on TV. I just hope that it being a Freevee exclusive doesn't limit its reach, Sprung has multi-season potential.

Looking forward to much more Sprung! Gregory Thomas Garcia is BACK!
