What to Know

Critics Consensus

Sprung's pandemic setting is sometimes more of a drag than a springboard for fresh ideas, but this bouncy sitcom bears all the genial hallmarks of creator Greg Garcia's comedic touch -- complete with a hilarious Martha Plimpton.

The show seems like it’s trying to say something about everything -- and especially about the ride we all went on during the first couple of years of COVID... It dates the show almost instantly, creating a massive hump Sprung never really gets over. Go to Full Review
John Anderson Wall Street Journal 08/18/2022
Sprung is a fresh idea, with terrific writing, terrific music and a comedically gifted cast, notably Ms. Plimpton. Go to Full Review
Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 08/18/2022
A solid blend of coarse, lowbrow humor and well-executed sentiment, featuring a great ensemble cast. Go to Full Review
Dustin Rowles Pajiba 08/24/2022
If you like Garcia’s brand of comedy, there’s no reason not to love Sprung. It’s a little quirky, a little zany, but it’s obvious he has a tremendous affection for these characters. Go to Full Review
Andrew Murray The Upcoming 08/23/2022
4/5
While its social satire lacks sharpness, Sprung’s ensemble cast of fantastic characters, and a script written with passion, make Garcia’s latest show a carefree and fun experience to lose oneself in. Go to Full Review
Joshua Axelrod Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 08/22/2022
Like most of Greg Garcia’s work, Sprung is a pleasant, easy watch that shines a spotlight on the lower middle-class types Hollywood usually wouldn’t feature this prominently. Go to Full Review

Kim B @RT86564524 Apr 21 I don’t typically like poor blue collar comedy, but this was well done. Good writing, interesting characters, and a fun plot with a lot of heart. It was wild going back and remembering the pandemic days. What a ride. See more Emily C @RT36854055 Dec 2 Genuinely hilarious. It’s surreal to watch recent history on the TV and feel like "part of it," and Sprung does an amazing job of capturing the genuine atmosphere of the COVID pandemic, with an ironic and humorous atmosphere. The characters are relatable and in depth, and I genuinely laughed out loud at least every couple of minutes - probably more! Give it a watch, it’s excellent. See more Gigi J @RT74357675 Jun 29 Great show, I just watched the last four episodes and I wish there were more. Funny and fresh, no spoilers but I was a little disappointed with part of the ending. Just sayin. See more paul b @Pauljoburns Jun 26 Hilarious, this really should have had more seasons amazon have no idea See more James H @RT63835098 12/09/2024 Well done- Solid writing, great acting, humorous, sympathetic and imaginative characters. See more Tom F @RT55173143 04/28/2024 A minor but solid COVID era charmer. See more Read all reviews
