Blockbuster Video is back… in sitcom form.
Created by Vanessa Ramos (Superstore, Brooklyn Nine-Nine), Blockbuster centers on the ragtag group of dreamers who work at the last Blockbuster Video in America. Headlined by the charming duo of Randall Park and Melissa Fumero, the sitcom follows the beleaguered store’s battle to stay relevant as optimistic store manager Timmy (Park) desperately tries to prevent the store from closing. If you’re interested in the real-life story of the last remaining Blockbuster Video, the 2020 documentary aptly titled The Last Blockbuster is also streaming on Netflix.
