Atypical. While the protagonist’s actor isn’t autistic and the first season was criticised for a lack of autistic actors, the latter seasons did include autistic actors. Generally I think it did a decent portrayal of someone with ASD (which can be hard given the wide breadth of how neurodivergent people present).

I said this in another comment, but he commits several crimes over the course of the show and there are never consequences. It’s not a good portrayal.
The only good portrayal of autism in that show is the main character’s sister, but sadly that’s only head canon.
