Alex C @RT93507806 1d Rooster is one of those shows that quietly wins you over - then suddenly you realise you’re completely hooked. What stands out immediately is the authenticity of the storytelling. The characters feel real and grounded, with flaws, humour, and depth that make them relatable rather than over-polished. The show also strikes a great balance between drama and lighter moments. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, yet it still delivers emotional beats that land. The humour is subtle and character-driven, which adds to the charm rather than distracting from the core narrative. Another highlight is the strong performances across the cast. Each character brings something unique, and there’s a clear chemistry that makes relationships feel believable. Overall, Rooster is a show that delivers a genuinely enjoyable watch. It’s thoughtful without being heavy, entertaining without feeling shallow, and it leaves you wanting to keep going after each episode.

Watching him navigate academia, fatherhood, ego, regret, and institutional absurdity gives the season real character depth, and the show is often strongest when it leans into that discomfort. The father-daughter dynamic is worth exploring, and the campus setting gives the story enough texture to feel more than just another midlife-crisis comedy. The cinematography and color palette are also surprisingly effective, shifting with the emotional tone of the season in a way that adds more subtlety than some of the dialogue. That said, the romantic dynamics around Rooster and his family can get a little over the top, and the ending feels weaker than the rest of the season. It starts closing emotional arcs, then very visibly rearranges the board for a second season, which makes the finale feel less natural than it should.

I love the way this show ended. I heard the renew for the 2nd season. Idc about the negative reviews, i loved this show.

Characters are predictable in their need to not offend and the whole series to date falls flat. I had to read a book, scroll on my phone and talk to my dogs to keep watching this. Love Steve Carrel, but even he can’t save this shallow example of a show. Hard pass.

I did not find Rooster attractive as a character. The wishy-washy daughter drove me cray. It passed the time. See more Read all reviews
