4/5
Based on the book Just Don't Fall by Paralympian Josh Lundquist, this wise and funny show gently explores what people will do to make themselves feel comfortable in the face of a body difference or disability. Go to Full Review

... A family-friendly sitcom that doesn’t pander to its audience in the slightest. And even though its plots consist of standard middle school shenanigans, it doesn’t rely on lame gags for cheap laughs. Go to Full Review

Gerardo O. @Jerry_12 Aug 25 Very Charismatic performances by ‘Josh’ and his family, this season has a great storyline. Sticks with you afterwards. See more NONE BUT C @RT94789821 09/30/2022 ONE OF THE BEST KID'S SHOW EVER MADE. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME SHOW. 5 MILLION STARS!!!!! See more 07/26/2022 Very nice to see!!! Despite being a children's series, I found that it breaks several paradigms, such as being disabled or having some disability doesn't limit you to doing certain things. And Josh is proof that if you really want something, you can achieve it and do it, disabled or not. See more 07/24/2022 Best Foot Forward is a ten episode series inspired by Josh Sundquist's bestselling memoir Just Don't Fall. The acting is strong. The music is excellent and includes a catchy song developed for the show by Victoria Canal. There are funny, sad, heartwarming, and informative moments. The family develops vulnerable, healthy, and better ways to talk about their feelings and support one another. This is worth the watch. See more Read all reviews
