It’s Florida, Man S1
“Too stupid not to be true,” It’s Florida, Man brings to life unbelievable, ripped-from-the-headlines tales of the Sunshine State.
Featuring interviews with everyday Floridians and playful recreations starring a rotating cast of actors and comedians – including Oscar nominee Juliette Lewis, People’s Choice nominee Anna Faris, Emmy nominees Lauren Lapkus and Stephen Root, and Critics’ Choice nominee Jake Johnson – this hilarious and outrageous series sheds light on the viral, wacky, and weird.
From the producers of The Righteous Gemstones, the six-part series has an 86% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Summing it up as “Florida’s Craziest Tales of Cannibalism, Gator Attacks, and Mermaid-Witches,” The Daily Beast calls the show “a crazy companion piece to Drunk History… [recounting] some of the most moronic chapters in America’s recent past.”
One of the Top 3 most watched series on Max during its run, HBO has already renewed It’s Florida, Man for a second season.
