Future Man

This TV show smells of Seth Rogen from miles away. In-your-face humor that pokes fun of current consumerism, which at the same time refers to current pop-culture, has always been his forte. But, being a fan of old action movies, I don’t know whether I should be ecstatic about it or whether I should simply accept it as fact. I mean the references to old action movies may be nice, but in the context of the level of the jokes that is not unlike the cartoon Sausage Party, I sometimes had to force myself not to turn the thing off. And it’s definitely not because I was offended, but because I don’t know if I find Seth’s stoner ideas funny. Episode seven is a must, that is for sure. James Cameron’s crib was amazing. Other than that, it keeps following the same formula and I actually don’t know whether I enjoyed it or not. (11.02.2019)

A bizarre sci-fi comedy about a janitor who travels through time into the past to save the future which lay in ashes because of a medication for herpes. The comedian Seth Rogen made his old dream come true and shot a vamped up Back to the Future crossed with Terminator in half hour doses with an incredible cadence. After rather a weak first episode, the story mutates into a surreal trip full of blood, ejaculate and cooking lessons. A great tribute to James Cameron, full of pop culture references. (26.12.2017)
