Brock O’Hurn, The Heartthrob of This Summer’s Hit Sitcom
A few weeks ago, I decided to take a break from the “real world” and watch the new sitcom, Brock O’Hurn. It is about a male model who has been waiting for his “big break” in the industry and after turning down several offers to star in commercials because he thought they were beneath him, he finally snags a role as an underwear model for Calvin Klein. But after finding out that his “big break” is nothing more than a one-time gig (and getting fired), he decides to move back home with his mom.
Brock O’Hurn’s character is a hit with viewers. The show’s creator and director, Julia Roberts, who is known for her comedy roles in films like Pretty Woman and Erin Brockovich, decided to take her talents to television with this series about an unlikely heartthrob.
Brock O’Hurn’s character is not only funny but also relatable. He struggles with being taken seriously as an actor, which can be frustrating if you’re trying to make it in Hollywood; but he keeps pushing forward because of his passion for acting and

ABC’s comedy Fresh Off the Boat, which premiered Wednesday night, is set in the 1990s and follows young Eddie Huang and his family. The show is based on the memoir of the same name by the restaurateur, who currently hosts the Vice show Huang’s World. But it’s more than just a sitcom about a Taiwanese-American family — it’s also a story about black people!
Wait — did we say “about black people”? We meant to say “with black people.” The show has quite a few characters of color (Ned, Louis Huang’s friend; neighbor Marvin; and Jessica’s boss Gene), but in reality, only one of them is black. That would be Kenny, played by Brock O’Hurn. Kenny is a high-school classmate of Eddie (played by Hudson Yang) who seems to get along with everyone. In the first episode, he invites all the boys over to his house to watch Friday. He later finds Eddie outside at school trying to make friends but instead getting bullied by two
Despite the fact that Brock O’Hurn is one of the biggest breakout stars of the summer, he’s not a household name quite yet. His role as “The Heartthrob” on ABC’s popular new series, The Quiz, has everyone talking about him.
O’Hurn is an up-and-coming actor who is trying to make his mark in Hollywood. He has been in several smaller movies and shows but hasn’t been able to hit it big until now. But all of that is about to change, as O’Hurn has already signed on for three more seasons of The Quiz.
O’Hurn plays the character of “The Heartthrob,” who has become a fan favorite on the show this summer. He has appeared in all five episodes so far, and his character is one of the most anticipated each week by viewers.
His character is a heartthrob because he wants to be one. While many people are attracted to him and want to be with him, he doesn’t care about those things; he just wants to be famous and have everyone know his name. While many people think this makes him a jerk or egot
There are a few actors whose names are known worldwide. One of those is Brock O’Hurn, who currently acts on the newest hit sitcom, “Nomadland.”
Brock O’Hurn plays the role of a traveling musician who goes from city to city looking for work and love. The news of this show broke out in June of 2020 when Brock O’Hurn announced that he would be starring in the new series with other actors such as Edward Norton, Daniel Craig, and Ben Kingsley.
The show was created by two directors: Paul Greengrass and Steven Knight. It is about the lives of three people living in modern-day Los Angeles. The show has been renewed for a second season, which will premiere sometime next year.
The show has received many positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, but O’Hurn’s character has been the most popular with viewers. He plays an aspiring musician who travels across America trying to make it big. His character is not only likable but also relatable to many people because he struggles with his own issues like everyone else does at some point or another in their lives.
One reviewer said:
“I love how much depth there is to him.”
After garnering a massive social media following, Brock O’Hurn is making the jump from hair model to actor. The California native has been cast as the lead in an upcoming sitcom. His character, Lance, is a wealthy playboy who finds love on the set of his latest film. “Lance is an unlikely hero,” O’Hurn says. “He’s not always politically correct and struggles with expressing his feelings. But he’s charming enough to win people over.” O’Hurn’s long locks make him a hit with female viewers and he hopes that translates to success for the sitcom. “The show will touch on issues like race and class,” he adds. “But it’s mostly about love, laughter, and family.” Other characters include Lance’s brother (played by breakout star Chance the Rapper) and best friend (played by musician Snoop Dogg).
For the past few weeks, Brock O’Hurn has been the best part of the most watched show on cable.
O’Hurn, a six-foot-seven-inch model and actor from California, plays Bobby on HBO’s Insecure, the hit new comedy about twentysomethings navigating their careers and relationships in Los Angeles. Bobby is a heartthrob with a sensitive side: He often shows up shirtless onscreen and is extremely good at emotional labor.
He’s also one of only two black men with speaking roles on the show, which follows Issa Dee (Issa Rae), a young woman of color who simultaneously holds down a job at a nonprofit while trying to pursue her passion for rap music. O’Hurn says his character is essentially “a male version of Issa.”
“Bobby is very comfortable in his own skin — he’s honest, but he doesn’t always know how to receive other people’s truth,” O’Hurn told BuzzFeed News by phone last week. “He doesn’t have it all figured out, but he’s trying to. And I don’t think that’s something that we see in a lot of male characters.”
