Jan 09, 2022Seasons 1-2. Interesting and entertaining. I'd recommend it. Season 1 has 8 15-minute episodes. Season 2 has 8 30-minute episodes. So a relative quick watch. I'd watch another season if/when it becomes available.

Jun 15, 2021I love this show so much, definitely one of my top 5 favorite TV shows I've ever watched. The writing is outstanding; so well written, hilarious, and the deeper moments are beautiful. Ryan O'Connell gives a phenomenally charismatic, funny, and beautifully authentic performance and Jessica Hecht, Punam Patel, and Marla Mindelle gave superb performances. The chemistry between Ryan and Punam is hilarious and the chemistry between Ryan and Jessica is so beautifully believable and authentic especially in the season finale their performances were perfection. The first season of Special is an A+ to me; I love seeing more authentic representation of people with a disability and people who are gay being represented by someone who is disabled and who is gay.

Jun 14, 2021Genuine!! 🏳️🌈 This short TV show follows Ryan O'Connell who also stars in this semi-autobiographical series based on his own memoir "I'm Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves". He plays Ryan, a gay man with mild cerebral palsy who decides to do away with his identity as an accident victim in hopes of finally going after the life that he wants. Short but compelling!

Jun 02, 2021The show appears to be twisted: The main character seems really selfish, self-absorbed. Responds to everything with a condescending "okay...?". What do guys like about his personality? I don't really get it, could not watch the whole thing.

Aug 18, 2019Parsons was the reason to terminate the best series ever made Big Bang theory for spending his time in tv series like this? What a pity.

Jul 08, 2019This series demonstrates that anyone can be an awful person. 20-something pain in the ass more worried about image than how he treats people. The millennial me-first mentality. Not funny, uncomfortable to watch, poorly presented, awkward, and goes nowhere.
-
May 17, 2019Special can use its title honestly due to its perfect blend of heartfelt and funny moments - thanks to Ryan O'Connell's talent as both lead star and writer.

May 04, 2019Ryan the main character really is an asshole who takes for granted the people around him and what people really do for him specially his mom which at the end of the season throws a pity party for himself when his mom expresses all she really does for him I really hope this show doesn't get a second season by far one of the worst shows on Netflix
