Dysfunctional NBA Family Battles for Control in Netflix’s Hilarious New Comedy

In essence, “Running Point” is similar to “Succession” but set in professional sports, although it’s not trying to replicate it. The characters in “Running Point,” like the Roys in “Succession,” have been affected by affluence and competition to an extreme degree, missing out on the paternal affection that is crucial. Unlike many recent family dramas, “Running Point” isn’t aiming to be “Succession.” Instead, it’s a genuine comedy, produced by a team including Mindy Kaling, her “Mindy Project” co-star Ike Barinholtz, and Buss. The show also shares similarities with “Ted Lasso,” if that sports sitcom had focused on Hannah Waddingham’s character as the AFC Richmond owner rather than Jason Sudeikis’ character as the folksy coach. The combination of flawed characters and a lighthearted tone works effectively, preventing the show from veering into self-importance or overly sweet scenarios—and resulting in Kaling’s first consistently good series for adults.
