What is FUBAR (TV) About?
FUBAR, an action-comedy television series that debuted on Netflix on May 25, 2023, marks Arnold Schwarzenegger's first foray into a leading role on scripted television. The show centers on Luke Brunner (played by Schwarzenegger) and his daughter Emma Bartholomina Brunner (played by Monica Barbaro), who, unbeknownst to each other, have both been leading double lives as CIA operatives. Their secretive careers come to light under unexpected circumstances, leading their superiors to pair them as a team for covert operations. This revelation spirals into a series of comedic and action-packed situations, complicated by Luke's parental instincts and Emma's desire for independence and professional respect. The dynamics of their previously deceitful relationship are tested as they embark on high-stakes missions while navigating their newfound family truths. Produced by Skydance Television and Blackjack Films, the series quickly gained an audience, leading to a renewal for a second season shortly after its initial release. FUBAR adds a unique twist to the spy genre by intertwining familial relationships with the clandestine world of espionage, delivered through the performances of its diverse cast, including Milan Carter as Barry Putt, the CIA technical operations officer assisting the Brunner family.
