“A Friend Of The Family” Review:In the series “A Friend Of The Family”, the devoted Mormon Broberg clan leads a tranquil existence in a little suburb of Idaho. They become best friends with their neighbors the Birch toads who also attend their church but the patriarch of the family Bob who also goes by B becomes obsessed with the eldest Broberg daughter Jan. He slowly manipulates the entire family to get closer to the girl who he wants to claim as his own until he kidnaps and sexually abuses her not once but twice.

The creator of the Friend of the family Nick and Tosca has been quite busy as of late when he’s not creating twisted mind-bending series like Channel zero or brand new cherry flavor. With a Friend Of The Family which people do think is his most accomplished work yet in this genre.

The series does a much better job at making it clear how something as diabolic as this could ever happen in the first place. I think the biggest thing working in a friend of the family’s favorite is how great the cast is Anna Paquin and Colin Hanks have the difficult task of making two typical 70s straight-laced blue-collar parents, interesting.

Though they chose to cast two different females for the role of Jan even though the timeline between the two is only a few years apart, Hendrix Yancy, who plays Jan at the age of 12, is a dead ringer like the actual Broberg at that age and does a good job with the challenging subject.

Was McKenna Grace just available for a portion of the days used for filming? The stroke of genius here though was the casting of the Lotus and the office Alum Jake Lacy as the sociopathic Bob Birch told Lacey can capture exactly why the real-life man was able to accomplish this.

He is so damn charming and likable yet underneath the facade, the actor relishes in this character’s calculated manipulation slimy conduct, and sinister ulterior motives. His shit-eating grin and piercing take the audience prisoner and he creates a truly great screen villain in this process. It would be a crime if Lacey didn’t get a second Emmy nomination for his work. Here his performance that phenomenal.

A Friend of The Family series includes 9 episodes these are:
