Despite an over reliance on gross, puerile humor, Future Man tempers its baser instincts with moments that either prompt genuine laughs or, on occasion, result in unexpected sincerity.

Despite the game energy of its cast, Future Man is mostly routine homage, with very little substance shoring up its derivative foundations.

Everything feels meticulously, lovingly plotted by the show's creators, but as it's happening it leads to numerous surprises and big laughs. Future Man is what happens when giddy, geeky and inspired storytelling is allowed to go full throttle.

If you're one to be won over by knowingly nostalgic nods livened up by vulgarities and violence - not to mention the always addictive presence of Coupe - this Hulu series is likely a fine, fun distraction for the present.

The central joke -- that the initially hapless Josh is not at all what the future was hoping to find -- is a good one, and it keeps paying off.
