Rob Loweand his real-life son,John Owen Lowe, appear to be a comedic dream team!
The father-son duo is starring in the upcoming Netflix comedy seriesUnstable. In the first look released Friday, the Lowes sat down to explain their roles on the show. Rob, 58, will play Ellis Dragon, a “narcissistic” tech genius who’s drifting closer to crazy, and John, 28, tackle the role of the mogul’s reserved son Jackson Dragon.
The Lowes outlined what viewers can expect from the series — and joked a bit about it along the way.
“I spent a good portion of my youth keeping him humble,” John teased. “It was a significantly large task. I feel like your ego unchecked is honestly dangerous. I want the people to know what he’s like at home.”

The jabs seem to be in good fun as the madness behind Rob’s character is put on display. He’s a “narcissistic” tech genius with the world in the palm of his hand … before he starts to lose it.
“Ellis Dragon is increasingly unstable,” Rob says. “That’s the title. You see what we did there? That’s what we did.”
Clips that follow see Ellis fully nude in his office — and one unlucky co-worker who walks in unassumingly. Apparently, Ellis' son “is the only person who can really reach his father.”
When Ellis tells Jackson he’d “love it here,” their differences are very apparent. “Don’t start with that. I play the flute,” Jackson says.
The actors wrap the clip up with a few more jokes about their real-life bond. “Working with Johnny is painful,” Rob says.
“That’s the acting,” Rob adds with John saying, “And we say ‘I love you’ a lot on the show.”
“That’s acting,” Rob ends.
