Austin's first season presents a mix of Australian and British humor through the story of an autistic man, Austin, who connects with his biological father, Julian, during a career crisis. Austin, played by Michael Theo, garners audience sympathy, while Julian, portrayed by Ben Miller, struggles with responsibility after sharing a controversial post. The show's writing shines with sharp, funny dialogue, yet the second season lacks the engaging tempo and emotional ambiguity of the first season. The well-cast supporting characters enhance the narrative, providing depth and comedic relief.
Austin cleverly intertwines humor from Australian and British cultures while presenting an autistic protagonist's touching journey to connect with his estranged father amidst personal crises.
The character dynamics, particularly between Austin, his father Julian, and supporting characters, create a compelling narrative that balances humor and emotional depth.
