A quick favor for an old contact turns into a chaotic road trip through the state's stranger corners in Florida Man, a 2023 crime-drama series that leans hard into the wild-headline reputation its title borrows from.
What is Florida Man about?
An ex-cop heads back to his home state of Florida to track down a mobster's runaway girlfriend, expecting the job to take a day or two before he's out again. Instead, the search drags him through a string of odd, dangerous, and increasingly tangled encounters across the state, pulling in old grudges and new enemies he didn't see coming. What was supposed to be a simple favor turns into a genuine odyssey, forcing him to confront pieces of his own past he'd rather have left buried while trying to stay one step ahead of the people hunting the same woman he is. The series mixes dark comedy with real tension, using Florida's reputation for the bizarre as both backdrop and running joke.
About the cast
Edgar Ramírez leads the cast as the ex-cop pulled back into his old home state, with Abbey Lee, Otmara Marrero, Lex Scott Davis, Emory Cohen, Isaiah Johnson, Anthony LaPaglia, and Lauren Buglioli rounding out the ensemble of allies, rivals, and everyone caught in between.
