The show revolves around a bunch of seventh graders experiencing and exploring puberty. All this while embracing a frankness about the human body and sex. Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg’s upbringing in suburban New York forms the base of the plot. Both of them are best friends since childhood and had this idea of developing a show about the phases of puberty.
Kroll was a late bloomer while Goldberg went through the physical changes of puberty very early. The sitcom showcases many of their life experiences. Some of them include Kroll’s first kiss and Goldberg’s parents waxing his mustache. The show even houses an experience of their childhood friend Lizzie who got her first period on a school trip to the Statue of Liberty.
Based on how things panned out at the end of the third season, it seemed like the show might get a time jump. But one of the voice characters, Jason Mantzoukas hinted that there were many pieces of summer, many ups, and downs, and a whole years’ worth of experiences in a summer to be explored. The show will be moving at its own pace.
