Future Man originally aired from 2017 to 2020 and stars Josh Hutcherson as Josh Futturman, an underachieving janitor with a rather ordinary life. But everything changes one night when he completes what was thought to be an unbeatable video game called Biotic Wars . To his surprise, the game’s main characters, Tiger and Wolf, appear in person and reveal that they need his help to save the world. From that point on, Josh is thrown into a whirlwind of time-travel adventures, alien battles, and increasingly absurd situations as he tries to prevent a catastrophic future.
The show is executive produced by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, and it certainly carries their signature mix of raunchy humor and genre-savvy storytelling. Alongside Hutcherson, the cast includes Eliza Coupe and Derek Wilson, with appearances from Ed Begley Jr., Keith David, Haley Joel Osment, Britt Lower, Awkwafina, and even Rogen himself. Each character brings their own quirks and depth, creating a dynamic and surprisingly heartfelt ensemble amidst the chaos.
Critics and audiences alike have praised Future Man for its clever writing and bold creativity. It holds an 83% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, while critics give it an even higher 91%. Season two, in particular, is considered flawless by many, and viewers have called the series “one of the most inventive takes on time travel in years.” The humor ranges from outrageous and crude to genuinely touching, and the show never shies away from exploring themes of heroism, friendship, and personal growth, all wrapped up in a wild sci-fi package.
For those who missed it the first time around, Netflix’s acquisition gives the series a much-needed second chance. It’s a perfect opportunity to binge all three seasons, laugh out loud, and experience a show that’s both a love letter to classic sci-fi and a fresh, unpredictable adventure. Whether you’re a die-hard sci-fi fan or just looking for a series that’s unafraid to be weird, Future Man promises a unique ride through time, humor, and heart.
So, if you haven’t heard of it yet, now’s your chance to see why so many fans are calling it a hidden gem. Prepare for laughs, chaos, and maybe even a little reflection as you follow Josh Futturman’s journey from janitor to unlikely hero—streaming now on Netflix.
