Big Mouth (2017)

Big Mouth is an irreverent, adult animated comedy that follows a group of middle-school friends as they navigate the messy, painful, and often hilarious terrain of puberty. Viewers can expect raunchy, blunt humor and surreal fantasy sequences — including the now-iconic Hormone Monsters — that externalize every awkward thought and bodily change into vivid, absurd set pieces. The show blends gross-out jokes and frank conversations about sex with surprisingly tender, honest explorations of identity, friendship, anxiety, and growing up, so you’ll laugh loudly and wince in equal measure. Stylistically bold and frequently musical, Big Mouth mixes outrageous one-liners and bigger emotional beats; episodes often pivot from shocking gags to sincere moments of vulnerability. It’s clearly aimed at mature audiences: expect explicit language, sexual content, and provocative subject matter, handled with both satire and heart. If you watch it, you’ll come away amused, occasionally uncomfortable, and oddly moved — experiencing a comedic, unfiltered look at adolescence that’s as empathetic as it is shocking.
