Sprung

... but WITH Martha Plimpton, it becomes "must watch".

Seriously, this is one of the funniest shows in a while, but Ms. Plimpton's character takes it over the top. I can't imagine anybody else playing Barb this great.

That said, "Rooster" Phillip Garcia is the second highlight for me. His antics, though sometimes over the top, made me chuckle more than once.

Fingers crossed for a second season with the same writers and director.

Still not 600 characters? Seriously IMDB, not every review needs to be that verbose to say what a show is about. This is about Sprung, the show Sprung, Sprung ist the name of the show until 600 characters are reached.

Talking about stupid rules, this is one of them.

Hilarious trip down a short Memory Lane, Sprung seems to combine the style of the 70's with the angst of the Corona Virus. Think Raising Hope combined with the rustic Pittsburg vibe and you get the setting for a funny 4 person crime spree.

I always looking for a Serie which could be the next Leverage which also was a funny Show,same Idea Bad Guys/Gals doing good "Sometimes the Bad Guys are the better Good ones" was kinda their Slogan,hihi.

AND here it is,not a Successor per Se,but same Spirit. I have to say very funny,sooo enjoyable,the cast are great,each one of them give the Show a FeelGood-Vibe to it(i am a great Fan of Garret Dillahunt). I dont know about how much of Sprung is true,but i can imagine it myself.😄

Big Recommendation,watch it,i am sure you´ll looking forward to see all the Episodes like i do now. Give us more more more,hihihihi.👍

I was referred this by my friend and found my brother watching it so I jumped in and watched with him. I'm glad I did because it was great. It stars a bunch of unknown actors outside of Garret Dillahunt (Justified, Fear the Walking Dead, Deadwood, etc.). Like another review already pointed out, it has the same feel as My Name Is Earl. The show is about a guy named Jack (Dillahunt) who recently gets paroled with his cellmate Rooster (Phillip Garcia) and he goes to live with Rooster and his mom, Barb (Martha Plimlton). The woman (Shakira Barrera) he was flirting with in prison also gets paroled and goes to live with the three of them. Jack wants to go straight and become a teacher but gets pulled in by the others and the four of them then use their criminal expertise to rip off bad people and do some good. This all takes place at the start of the pandemic, which makes for a very funny setting.

I had no idea what this was going to be like. The first two episodes were unexpectedly funny with a few truly touching scenes. Martha Plimpton is at her hilarious, face-contorting best playing a sleazy mother of a con released from prison early due to CV-19. He brought two other cons home with him with no place to go. Of course, cons will be cons so petty crimes ensue. This is a keeper!
