Glen Powell's 'Chad Powers' Mixes Humor and Heart in Hulu Football Comedy
TL;DR Summary
The Hulu series 'Chad Powers' is a sports comedy about a former college quarterback, Russ Holliday, who disguises himself as Chad Powers to revive his football dreams, but the show is more compelling in its exploration of father-daughter dynamics and character depth than in its sports plot, which echoes other series like 'Ted Lasso' and features self-aware humor and redemption themes.
