The Last Man on Earth has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available in Australia on Disney Plus and Stan, and in the US on Hulu. Every one of its 4 seasons holds up. 981 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Watch it for Will Forte — stay for everyone else around them. Available now on Disney Plus — press play and find out why people keep recommending it.

There is a reason The Last Man on Earth keeps coming up in conversation. The jokes in The Last Man on Earth land because the characters underneath them are worth caring about. The year is 2022, and after an unlikely event, only one man is left on earth: Phil Miller, who used to be just an average guy who loved his family and hated his job at the bank. Now, in his RV, Phil searches the country for other survivors. The chemistry Will Forte and Kristen Schaal bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. Across 4 seasons (2015–2018), it never lost the thread that made it worth starting. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and The Last Man on Earth holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

The Last Man on Earth is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. Zoo is the obvious comparison, but The Last Man on Earth earns its own place alongside it. A contained run means every episode is doing real work. Will Forte's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.

The Last Man on Earth was cancelled in 2018, created by and starring Will Forte — and 4 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
