This coming-of-age series follows Sam Gardner, a teenager on the autism spectrum who decides that he's ready to shake off his doting parents and gain some independence — especially in his love life. Experiencing everything from his first girlfriend, to his first job, and eventually, to his first college classes, Atypical is both heartwarming and hilarious. Though actor Keir Gilchrist is not on the autism spectrum himself, the series started incorporating actors who are actually on the spectrum in season two, giving the series new depth and complexity.
