Synopsis

Allen Gregory follows the life of a highly intelligent and pretentious 7-year-old boy named Allen Gregory De Longpre, who is forced to attend elementary school after being homeschooled. Allen's eccentric and pampered upbringing clashes with the harsh reality of public schooling, leading to a series of comedic and sometimes cringe-inducing situations. The show explores themes of social awkwardness, family dynamics, and the challenges of fitting in with peers who don't quite understand him. With the voice talent of Jonah Hill, Allen Gregory offers a fresh and satirical take on the typical coming-of-age story, filled with quirky humor, unexpected friendships, and heartfelt moments of self-discovery.
