We have all heard that story that sounds too outrageous to be true and thought, I bet it happened in Florida. And it did.
Well, six of the most unbelievable stories based on real events are coming to Max on October 18th, and as a former resident of the Sunshine State, I can’t wait to watch them all in It’s Florida, Man.
From Rough House Pictures (HBO’s “Eastbound & Down” and “The Righteous Gemstones”) and Range Studios, this irreverent late-night comedy series brings to life unbelievable ripped-from-the-headlines tales of the Sunshine State – straight from the people who live there. Featuring interviews from everyday Floridians and playful recreations starring a rotating cast of actors and comedians, including Anna Faris, Jake Johnson, Randall Park, Juliette Lewis, Sam Richardson, Ego Nwodim , and more, this hilarious and outrageous series sheds light on the viral, wacky, and weird. Covering diverse topics – from mermaids to witches, extreme fantasies, and feral bunnies with equal parts humor and heart, IT’S FLORIDA, MAN. is a love letter to the beaches, backwaters, and especially the people of a misunderstood yet magical state.
I seriously don’t know how I survived living, going to college, and working there for six years. But I did. And yes, we all have a story to tell that can only happen in Florida. You know, because It’s Florida, Man!
