From award-winning actor-writer-producer-director Bob Balaban comes a hilarious new series, perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid

If popularity were a score between one and ten, Charlie Drinkwater would be a zero. He's nerdy and unathletic, and to top it all off, he's suddenly morphed into a giant mutant sea creature sometime between first-period science class and third-period English.

Now Charlie's two best friends are treating him like a science project, there's a petition to get him kicked out of school, the cool kids are recruiting him for their clique, and for some reason his parents are acting like everything is perfectly normal. What's a slimy, scaly, seventh-grade creature to do?
Bob Balaban is a busy actor-director-writer-producer. He was nominated for an Academy Award for Gosford Park and for a number of Emmys for his TV movies Bernard and Doris and Georgia O’Keeffe, as well as a Tony Award, a BAFTA, and a Golden Globe. He had the pleasure of playing Warren Littlefield in the movie The Late Shift and Russell Dalrymple on Seinfeld. View titles by Bob Balaban
