Bryan Cranston co-created this series, based on a book of the same name, and although it’s only six episodes, it manages to overload you with saccharine sentimentality in a fraction of that time. It centers on brothers who, with their mother, are trying to process the death of the boys’ father. Fortunately, he left a—spoiler—dangerous book for boys that transports them into a whimsical world that serves as a kind of ad hoc group family therapy. It’s kind of like a secular Heaven Is for Real, in all its cloying anti-glory.
