I was genuinely invested in the idea of this show from its ads on Peacock and figured "Hey, why not? Let's see what Curry's up to." I was expecting a comedic show that would touch upon the intricacies of Curry's fame and success - - the things we don't see or often think about. I imagined continuous laughs and a decent, dare I say thrilling, plot line.
I was wrong.
This show is the epitome of what's wrong with modern television. Every dialogue was an opportunity to name drop some celebrity, brand, or pop culture reference I did not care about. The acting was just terrible. A mockumentary is no excuse for subpar delivery. The awkward moments weren't at all funny. They were just awkward.
The first episode was whatever. I ended up giving the show another chance but ultimately couldn't finish the second episode because there was nothing good. Can you imagine? A cast like that, all the cameos, all the resources for a sorry show. I'm heavily disappointed at how shallow Mr. Throwback is. If you're materialistic, obsessed with pop culture, and entertained by bad acting, this show's for you. For literally everyone else, save your time and move along.
