About This Program

Role Models is a programme delivered as a movie, falling squarely within the comedy genre. It is billed simply as a comedy and presents its story in a straightforward, light‑hearted style. The format is that of a single feature rather than a series, and it is listed under the programme category. It is presented in a modern cinematic style. The central premise follows two men who have found themselves on the wrong side of the law. As part of their sentence, they are ordered to perform community service, which involves looking after a group of troubled children. The situation forces the pair, both described as irresponsible, to confront the challenges of caring for youngsters they know little about. Their lack of experience drives the narrative forward. The film features a cast that includes Paul Rudd, Seann William Scott and Christopher Mintz‑Plasse. These actors bring the characters to life within the comedic framework established by the story. Their involvement is highlighted as a key element of the programme. The combination of a legal mishap and forced childcare creates a set‑up that lends itself to humour. By placing the two protagonists in an unfamiliar role, the programme aims to generate comedic situations that arise from their attempts to fulfil the community‑service requirement.
