Things change, though, when he beats a video game that the rest of the world has given up on, thinking it was unbeatable. After he defeats the game, mysterious visitors from the future appear. They put the world in danger, and Josh is the only person who can save it. He assembles a team to assist him as he travels through time, completing various missions as he does whatever he can to try to save Earth from the extraterrestrial visitors.

      Critics Consensus

      Future Man's nostalgia-driven premise is elevated by the cast's compelling chemistry and a sense of humor just dumb enough to lighten the sci-fi load.

      Eric Thurm AV Club The fact that I've grown to like these characters enough that I wouldn't mind spending a few more hours with them. Nov 30, 2017 Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Sometimes, I can laugh just looking at Eliza Coupe's face. The former star of "Happy Endings," originally from New Hampshire, seems to have wryness and absurdity built into her physiognomy. Nov 21, 2017 Full Review Karen Han The Daily Beast There's a level to which the show is progressive - and truly funny! - but that self-awareness only extends to whichever meme is being lampooned in that moment. Otherwise, the jokes now feel woefully mistimed. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Dylan Ford Cultured Vultures The chemistry between the main cast is apparent in their comedic timing and the warmth of their relationships. By season's end, Josh, Tiger, and Wolf come together as a team, with each character feeling human and fully-formed. Oct 8, 2019 Full Review Jacob Oller Paste Magazine Future Man's present is strong enough that it deserves to live on-and, if nothing else, there's at least one man in it with an amazing comic future ahead of him. Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Allegra Frank Polygon Maybe Future Man doesn't recreate the actual gaming experience so well. But the part about being a fan and surrounding yourselves with other people who get your love, share it and appreciate it? That's on the money. Jul 13, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
