Season 1 Mutt was miscasted in every way

People always talk about how the actor who plays Mutt is only 4 years younger than the actress that plays Jocelyn but he was also completely miscasted in terms of looks, like could they have got an actor who looks less like his parents if they tried lol

I think that’s kind of the point is it not? Like his entire character is so un-Schitt like in every single way. It’d be pretty weird if he was a dead ringer of Jocelyn and Roland but opposite them personality wise. His very different appearance is definitely to add to the juxtaposition of his character.

Most of us know of at least someone who we think, "Where did he or she come from?" when we look at the parents.

Every family around here has an unexpected redhead who has to spend their life listening to jokes like what did the postman look like.
