What is Ten Year Old Tom about?

Ten Year Old Tom is an American adult animated sitcom that offers a comedic glimpse into the life of a ten-year-old boy, Tom, as he attempts to make sense of the world around him. Created by the mind behind The Life & Times of Tim, Steve Dildarian, the series creates humor through the interaction between Tom and the grownups who, despite their good intentions, frequently end up providing questionable guidance. The show's cast includes Dildarian himself as the voice of Tom, with a supporting cast featuring talents such as Byron Bowers, Edi Patterson, and John Malkovich, among others. Premiering on HBO Max and later broadening its audience through Adult Swim, Ten Year Old Tom strikes a chord with its unique animation style, relatable scenarios, and a satirical edge. It paints a picture of a child's innocent perspective clashing with the less-than-perfect workings of the adult world, offering both laughs and reflection on the complexity of modern-day upbringing. The show has been received well enough to warrant a second season, reaffirming its place in the niche of adult animated sitcoms.

The first episode of Ten Year Old Tom aired on September 30, 2021 and the most recent episode to air was on June 29, 2023.
