Big Mouth is an American adult animated coming-of-age sitcom created by Andrew Goldberg, Nick Kroll, Mark Levin, and Jennifer Flackett for Netflix. The series centers on teens based on Kroll and Goldberg’s upbringing in suburban New York, with Kroll voicing his fictional younger self. Big Mouth explores puberty while embracing an openness about the human body and sex. The show contains more vulgar and explicit content than South Park.
Upon its release, the series received critical acclaim, with praise going to the writing, animation, voice acting, musical numbers, humor, and emboldening messages of acceptance.
Is Big Mouth based on Nick Kroll’s life?
The American actor co-created the series and voices a character called Nick who is loosely based on himself – but as the hormone monsters and other surreal elements suggest, Big Mouth isn’t a straightforward autobiography. As it turns out, Big Mouth is a tale of two stories – one about Kroll’s upbringing, and one about the modern puberty experience. The original comedic premise evolved into a universally-relatable story.
