Beyond Atypical: Four Shows That Redefine Growing Up

If you loved the warm, witty journey of Sam Gardner in Atypical, you’ll find a kindred spirit in three very different shows that each expand the conversation about growing up on your own terms. Pluribus plunges viewers into a dystopian New Mexico where a lone misanthrope fights a hive‑mind of enforced happiness, offering a bold, recent release that pushes the boundaries of self‑identity. Adults, the audience‑loving comedy‑drama, trades suburban Connecticut for the chaotic energy of Queens, chronicling a group of twenty‑something friends as they stumble through careers, love, and the messiness of modern adulthood. And FOREVER, a heartfelt teen romance set against the backdrop of elite athletics in Los Angeles, delivers the classic, emotionally resonant story of first love and family expectations that fans of Atypical will instantly recognize.

Together, these picks form a curated quartet: a cutting‑edge sci‑fi drama, a beloved contemporary comedy, and a timeless teen love story—all anchored by the same core themes of self‑exploration, family dynamics, and the search for belonging. Whether you’re craving something new, a fan‑favorite, or the closest semantic match to Atypical’s spirit, this lineup promises to keep you laughing, thinking, and feeling every step of the way.
