‘Unstable’ star Rob Lowe’s son ‘not surprised’ by his racy past, traumatized by dad’s shirtless scene

Two of a kind? Rob Lowe and son John Owen Lowe may star on Netflix’s Unstable together, but they are not sure if Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval better hold that title.

Rob Lowe and his 28-year-old son, John Owen Lowe, got downright serious — and a bit emotional — during their latest appearance on .The father-son comedic duo had a lot banter during Thursday's show, trading barbs and zinging each other. But the conversation turned serious, after Barrymore opened up about her sobriety journey and sharing that her family supports «me through my pitfalls.»She then commended Rob and John Owen for supporting «each other through every high and low.» Rob chimed in and talked about being in recovery for 33 years now.

Rob Lowe played the role of proud parent as he marked a major milestone for his son John Owen Lowe. Despite being attached at the hip while they work together on their new Netflix series, the 59-year-old actor got a chance to surprise his youngest child with a truly meaningful gift during an episode of "The Drew Barrymore Show." Lowe, who has 33 years of sobriety under his belt, gifted John his five-year chip in honor of his commitment to his own recovery efforts. "You guys have supported each other in amazing things, and I’ve been really honest with my kids who are younger, but they know my story," Barrymore by began sharing a few words on her own recovery story.  "They know I can’t drink, like it’s just not for me.

Rob Lowe revealed he had to cut his honeymoon short to film "Wayne's World" in 1992. Lowe appeared on "The Drew Barrymore Show," where the two talked about some of his hit films. "I had to come back from my honeymoon to do that movie," Lowe admitted.

One was fiercely focused, the other accident-prone. They both made it.

There is no code to crack when it comes to making marriage work, but "Unstable" actor Rob Lowe has a few secrets he's willing to share after being married for over three decades.  "It is not just Hollywood, it's everywhere. Marriage is hard.… It can be hard – marriage is not hard. If it were hard, nobody would do it.

John Owen Lowe isn’t afraid to roast his famous father Rob Lowe, even if it’s on national television.

John Owen Lowe addressed his status as a “nepo baby” in a new interview.

John Owen Lowe, Rob Lowe’s son and star of Netflix’s “Unstable,” is weighing in the nepo baby discourse, calling it a “very important conversation.”“I do think that it should be acknowledged, and privilege is inherent in the entertainment industry as it is in many other ones too, and it is just in life in general,” John Owen told TheWrap. Lowe, who began his career as a writer on “9-1-1: Lone Star,” which stars his father, also urges those who might be benefitting from their family’s stature to acknowledge their inherent privilege for their the sake of their own development.“I think those that have it need to be at the very least aware of that, in order to have a semblance of groundedness, or a healthy take on reality,” Lowe, 28, said.

“some dialogue,” he confided most in his therapist about the show’s striking resemblance.“The truth is, when I’m really feeling like, it’s all getting too meta for me, he’s not the right person to go to because it’s about him, so I have to find other resources,” John Owen said.

Emily Longeretta When John Owen Lowe began writing on “9-1-1: Lone Star,” which stars his dad, Rob Lowe, he couldn’t resist venting to members of his team. His complaints about going “stir crazy” were so funny that they told him to pitch it as a show. With that, Netflix’s “Unstable” was born: The sitcom, which premieres March 30, stars the two actors and co-creators as estranged father and son Ellis and Jackson. The comedy is fictional — but rooted in reality. “Jackson’s estranged from his dad. It never got that bad between my dad and me,” Lowe, 28, says. “[Jackson is] a little more socially awkward and lost than I am. I did experience pockets where I didn’t have an identity, because of what it was like growing up with a father who sort of sucks the air out of every room you’re in with him.” 

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV Critic The conversation about “nepo babies” has grown tiresome — and not just because “nepo baby” itself is such an unattractive turn of phrase. (Was “nepotism case” too hard to pronounce, somehow?) The general outrage over the idea that children of famous actors find themselves drawn to acting, ginned up by an artfully provocative recent cover story in New York magazine, has tended to elide the simple fact that said children often find themselves acting because they share talents with their parents, who are famous for good reason. So it is with John Owen Lowe, who seems like a slightly altered carbon copy of his father Rob (of “The West Wing” and “Parks and Recreation,” among others), with the smarm ironed out. Together, they’re headlining “Unstable,” a new Netflix comedy that’s infuriatingly better than it needed to be. Lowes père and fils share executive producer credits with Victor Fresco and Marc Buckland, two creatives with long comedy résumés. And what might have been expected to look like a Lowe family vanity project — Rob Lowe has built a sort of performed vanity into his public persona, after all — has ended up as a sharply written comedy with some genuinely great lines.

Rob Lowe is one proud dad.

Damian Lewis is returning to the franchise and a multitude of spinoffs are being explored, but Billions could be set to end with its seventh season.

BreAnna Bell “It was a lot of highs and Lowes,” John Owen Lowe said of working with his famous father, Rob Lowe, on Netflix’s latest comedy “Unstable.” At the show’s premiere on Thursday night in Hollywood, the father-son duo spoke with Variety about their unique dynamic — and how its portrayal on the show isn’t so different from real life. John Owen plays Jackson, the son of Ellis Dragon (Rob Lowe) in the workplace comedy. Ellis is a quirky biotech genius who finds out he may lose his job when he spirals following the death of his wife. With the company at risk of imploding, his employees seek out the one source they feel can help him at this time: his son.
