Rutherford Falls Review

Rutherford Falls

Peacock

So at first, I thought the new streaming service from NBC called Peacock was just going to be streaming their previous shows, like The Office. But now I see they are creating original content. On the one hand…another streaming service. On the other…more content!

Michael Schur, who wrote for The Office and co-created Parks & Rec (another all-time favorite) co-created the comedy Rutherford Falls.

Nathan Rutherford (played by Ed Helms from The Office and The Hangover) is the self-proclaimed Rutherford Falls ambassador since his family founded the town hundreds of years ago (and by founded I mean negotiated with the local Native American tribe). Reagan, his Native American best friend, is from said tribe.

Since I’m against spoilers of any kind I can’t really go more into what the comedy is about, but I’m loving seeing different types of representation and I’ve never seen a comedy quite like this. Also, Nathan’s ‘intern’ Bobby and Reagan will both be stars. You heard it here first.
