Overview
- The series premiered on HBO Max this past Monday, introducing a campus-set comedy led by Steve Carell.
- Carell plays novelist Greg Russo visiting a university to reconnect with his daughter Katie, with storylines about paternity, divorce and reinvention.
- Created by Bill Lawrence and Matt Tarses, the show was conceived as a true ensemble, with Carell also serving as a producer.
- Carell likened the collaborative on-set culture to The Office, while Lawrence stressed the need to establish cast chemistry quickly in the streaming era.
- The cast includes Charly Clive, Phil Dunster and John C. McGinley, extending Lawrence’s creative lineage from Ted Lasso and Scrubs, and an early review from La Nación deems it good while noting uneven stretches.
