Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, I Love My Dad earns its spot. I Love My Dad does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. A hopelessly estranged father catfishes his son in an attempt to reconnect. Patton Oswalt and James Morosini lead a cast that never overplays a joke. It was released in 2022. I Love My Dad earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

For viewers who want something light without wanting something stupid, I Love My Dad respects your intelligence. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Patton Oswalt is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
