“Florida Man” memes that include news reports that have “Florida Men” engaging in absurd crimes spurring real-life headlines: “Naked Florida man leads cops on chase in stolen school bus” or “Florida man punches bobcat to save daughter’s dog.” On the show, this manifests in situations including an incident where Mike tries to save a woman from drowning on a beach — only to get be accused of assaulting her. On top of this indignity, he then get his unmentionables bitten by a shark … and the incident goes viral on social media.There’s also a plotline involving a dismembered dead man found in a storm drain. In theory, it’s a good idea to make a show around these notorious “Florida Man” headlines that have become ubiquitous punchlines.
But the series never quite gels into anything coherent, nor does it get quite outlandish enough to justify naming itself after those infamous memes.The visuals are appropriately seedy — candy-colored neon flickering nightclub signs, motel rooms, beachside dive bars — but while the actors all deliver engaging performances, and their characters are often fun, we don’t know enough about them to feel invested in what’s happening. Is Mike an antihero a la Walter White? Is he a man we’re supposed to sympathize with and root for? Or is he a guy we’re supposed to laugh at and judge without liking – similar to the “Succession characters?” Despite Ramirez’s valiant attempts to give Mike depth, it doesn’t feel like “Florida Man” has figured it out.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Carl Nargle (Owen Wilson), the amusingly ironic hero of “Paint” (ironic because, as we discover, he’s about as far from heroic as you can get), hosts a one-man instructional painting show that gets broadcast live out of the PBS station in Burlington, Vermont. Each afternoon, Carl appears on camera for one hour, puffing on his pipe, holding his brushes and palette as he dashes off an oil painting of a local wilderness setting (snowy mountains, twilight vistas, trees), explaining all the while, in the unruffled monotone of a stoned hypnotist, how you too can get to a “special place” just by painting what’s in your heart. Carl himself seems nearly as much of an art object as his canvases of Mt. Mansfield, the Vermont peak he has begun to paint with OCD frequency. He wears the same denim Western shirts, fuzzy beard and ash-blond Afro that he’s been sporting since 1979. He’s a relic: the landscape painter as Fred Rogers for adults, a kind of soft-rock guru from the age when men were Mellow. The biggest TV celebrity in Burlington, he thinks he’s on top of the world, but he’s about to come tumbling down.
