What people are saying
Updated nightlyMost people are having a blast with this Glen Powell series, where he plays a washed-up quarterback disguising himself as a weirdo walk-on named Chad Powers. Powell himself is the main draw, with a lot of praise for his committed, charismatic performance, even if the actual Chad Powers character gets mixed reactions. While the humor and acting (especially from the cast around Powell) are solid, the story feels pretty familiar and the original idea doesn't quite land for a lot of viewers. Basically, it's a fun watch if you're there for Powell's charm and some laughs, but don't expect a groundbreaking plot.
