What seemed like an unlikely casting dream for one MCU actor was actually way more possible than it seemed. Marvel has had plenty of recastings over the past 17 years without much need for explanation, as sometimes things happened behind the scenes that made it necessary. The studio has also cast actors to play multiple MCU roles, and the roles have usually been distinct enough that there isn’t any confusion. Such as Gemma Chan playing Minn-Erva and Sersi and Linda Cardellini playing Laura Barton and Lylla the Otter, there are VFX and makeup in place that disguise them.

When an MCU character dies, the actor’s time in the MCU is usually ended, unless they are recast in a different role. Sometimes an actor’s dream casting feels tangible, while other times it feels merely like a wish. Ben Mendelsohn first debuted as the Skrull Talos in 2019’s Captain Marvel,...

The DC Universe's first official release has only increased the pressure on James Gunn's Superman, but the film still has a lot going for it. James Gunn's Superman movie is set for release in July 2025 and marks the true beginning of the Dcu's overarching story. Superman is the first movie in the Dcu's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters and, as such, is looking to kickstart the franchise into an age of cinematic storytelling that has been absent from DC for a long while.

Superman's cast of characters is expected to establish the foundations of the franchise, but it is the film's writer and director that faces the most pressure. Gunn's Superman must achieve all of these elements to be deemed a success, all while performing well enough commercially to warrant the complete restart of the DC Universe. Now, the pressure on the upcoming DC movie has been...

Richard Jenkins has joined the cast of the upcoming HBO limited series “Dtf St. Louis,” Variety has learned.

Jenkins will appear in the series alongside previously announced leads Jason Bateman, David Harbour, and Linda Cardellini. The show was picked up for seven episodes at HBO back in November and is now in pre-production.

The official logline now states the show is “about a love triangle between three adults experiencing middle-age malaise, that leads to one of them ending up dead.” Jenkins will appear in the role of Detective Donoghue Homer.

Jenkins is a highly-accomplished and versatile actor with strong credentials in drama and comedy across film and television. He won the Emmy Award for best actor in a limited series or movie for the HBO miniseries “Olive Kitteridge.” He was nominated for another Emmy in 2023 for his work in the Netflix series “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.” His...

Despite the debut season of Creature Commandos coming to an end, star Maria Bakalova revealed her anxieties about voice acting in the Max series. She portrayed the morally complex Princess Ilana Rostovic, the acting monarch of Pokolistan who Task Force M is sent to protect.

In an appearance on Collider Ladies Night, Bakalova stated:

"Kudos to all the voice actors out there. It's such a hard job to do. You basically only use your voice. We're privileged, to a degree, to be able to use physical appearance, to be able to walk in a different way, to talk in a different way, look at people in a different way with a camera when we're acting on a set. You use your eyes a lot of times, you use your hands a lot of times, you use your smile a lot of times. With voice acting, you basically only use your...

It’s looking like Amazon’s bet on Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Chris Evans paid off. Prime Video’s “Red One” secured 2.1 billion minutes in the second week of December, topping Nielsen’s list of the Top 10 overall most streamed shows and movies. “Red One” is now the most-watched Prime Video movie to place on Nielsen’s Top 10.

The Christmas movie was followed by two Netflix titles: “Carry-On” and “Black Doves.” The...

James Gunn has had a filmography that has made him a mainstay of the superhero cinema.

Both of the seminal films that managed to translate one of the most iconic animated properties to live-action are now streaming on Netflix, making them more accessible than ever to the modern audience.

Since its release on Netflix in December 2024, the dark comedy series No Good Deed has been an instant fan favorite. During the first week of the new year, the show remains in the top 10 most popular shows ranking, proving that viewers are still discovering the end-of-the-year hidden gem and on the edge of their seats with every unpredictable twist and turn.

The series comes from creator Liz Feldman, who knows a thing or two about crafting a dark and twisted mystery that's full of humor. No Good Deed centers on a couple attempting to sell their home, but when three other couples come biting to bid, the house's dirty secrets from the past come to light and entangle each couple in unpredictable ways.

In her final interview with Gold Derby just months before her death, the stage and screen star looked back at her storied career.

Linda Lavin, best known for playing the title role in Alice, died Dec. 29 at the age of 87 following a battle with lung cancer. Based on Martin Scorsese‘s 1974 film Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore, the CBS sitcom ran for nine seasons from 1976 to 1985. Lavin was nominated for an Emmy in 1979 and earned two Golden Globes for her role as the working single mother who makes ends meet as a waitress at a diner in Arizona.

In June, following a guest appearance on CBS’ Elsbeth, Lavin reflected on her long career on screen and stage in an exclusive interview with Gold Derby, describing Alice as “like a dream.”

“My life had fallen apart, my first marriage was falling apart, and I was starting a new job,” the actress...

Streaming audiences have been all over the place with their holiday viewing this year. Instead of non-stop Christmas classics, we've seen Megan Fox sci-fi thrillers dominating Netflix's charts, and Gerard Butler-led crime thrillers taking over the Max rankings. That said, viewers have still managed to squeeze in some traditional holiday fare amid all the crime and sci-fi stuff, with Prime Video audiences propelling Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1996 Christmas comedy "Jingle All the Way" to the top of that streamer's charts. But even as the festive classics surface for the season, our collective appetite for darker offerings appears to be insatiable, as a new Netflix comedy drama series has managed to stand out amid the holiday stream-fest.

Back in 2022, "Dead to Me" creator Liz Feldman signed on to helm new Netflix series "No Good Deed," and now the show has finally arrived. It seems it was worth the wait, too,...

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon has turned off the lights. But the late-night TV show and host Jimmy Fallon won't be off the air for too long.

Fallon wrapped up 2024 last week, welcoming one final batch of A-list stars to the Tonight Show studio. It also came as he closed out his annual sweater giveaway and threw in some holiday songs and parodies, too.

But don't expect to hear from Fallon or any of his celebrity guests for the time being. The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon is done for the year.

Starting on December 23, NBC will air repeat episodes during the show's normal timeslot. Monday night will replay the December 10 episode featuringJohn Mulaney, Linda Cardellini, Julien Baker & Torres .

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for No Good Deed, Season 1.] Netflix‘s newest Liz Feldman project, No Good Deed, brings a star-studded cast together as the show tells the story of a family trying to sell their home amid grief and secrets. Among the interested buyers are Sarah (Poppy Liu) and Leslie (Abbi Jacobson), a couple eager to find their forever home as they attempt to start a family. While Sarah and Leslie contend with IVF struggles, they also decide to dig into the mystery surrounding Paul (Ray Romano) and Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow), who have a bidding war on their hands with several interested buyers. Ultimately, it turns out that Paul and Lydia’s son died after being shot by someone they believed was their teen daughter, who mistook her brother for a robber. The season’s twist reveals that it was in fact neighbor Margo (Linda Cardellini), who ejected a bullet seconds before the Morgans’ daughter did.

Linda Cardellini has lived a hell of a lot of lives. Sure, there’s her real one: a 49-year-old mom who grew up in California and is now raising a 13-year-old daughter with the love of her life while balancing a career that only seems to grow richer as she ages. But that’s not what people are most excited about when they stop her on the street. Most often, they’re stoked to see Judy, Cardellini’s homicidal but loveable character from showrunner Liz Feldman’s black comedy Dead to Me,...

Netflix's new dark comedy series No Good Deed from Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman has been a last-minute end of the year hit. The series debuted on Dec. 12 and has been a fixture on the streamer's top 10 most popular shows ranking ever since. Obviously, viewers are loving the darkly hilarious tragicomedy-mystery and they want more from the twisty series.

No Good Deed stars Emmy Award-winning sitcom veterans Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano as Lydia and Paul Morgan, a married couple attempting to unload their beloved Los Angeles family home in the aftermath of a closely shielded tragedy. The excellent series cleverly walks a tightrope between comedy, drama, and mystery, nailing every single one thanks to its writing and cast.

Even though the season finale wraps up the Morgan family's storyline and doesn't offer any leading cliffhangers for Lydia and Paul for a prospective followup season, that doesn't mean...

Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano have been the sitcom darlings of yesteryear. Through their work in Friends and Everybody Loves Raymond, they have become prominent figures in both film and television. However, besides a few exceptions, they have not shown the full extent of their dramatic acting skills. “No Good Deed” on Netflix offers them both a chance to be grounded performers who can effectively portray the gravity and the complexity of grief. This dark comedy, written by Liz Feldman, shows Kudrow and Romano as a middle-aged couple trying to sell their house a while after their son’s unfortunate death.

The series mainly revolves around the mystery behind the son’s death to realize the cause and the culprit behind a shocking turn of events. While doing so, it digs deeper into the lives of three families, who hope to buy their house.

Spoilers ahead.

Creature Commandos opens its fourth episode with Rick Flag, Sr. (Frank Grillo) in a passionate embrace with Ilana (Maria Bakalova). Rick has to take Circe (Anya Chalotra) back to the United States to stand trial for her crimes. However, the princess begins a full-scale assault of innuendo, talking about just banging and bumping Circe so he can stay there.

Hence, why the princess kept talking about the banding and bumping if you catch my drift. She praises him for being such a good man while rubbing her foot against his. However, the general has a look on his face that maybe he thinks otherwise. Rick turns away from Ilana and walks away.

Oh, speaking of love, we later see that Eric Frankenstein is hovering over the Non-Human Internment Division (Nhid). They confirm The Bride, his love, is there, but he doesn’t like how she looks at Rick. Later, Eric...

It took a force like Taylor Sheridan to topple Max’s dominant run atop the streaming chart on the Samba TV Weekly Wrap Report last week. This week, it’s another streaming super power’s turn, as Netflix denies Sheridan the rare opportunity to top both the streaming and linear top 10 lists.

Netflix’s return to the top spot is thanks to “Carry-On.” The thriller has a holiday angle – all of the action happens on Christmas Eve – which helped it give Netflix its first chart topper since “The Perfect Couple,” way back on the Sept. 19 edition of the Samba TV Weekly Wrap Report.

“Landman,” the Taylor Sheridan creation that topped last week’s chart, slides down to No. 2 this week. It’s one of just two non-Netflix titles on this week’s chart as the streamer dominates holiday season viewership.

The other, “Red One” on Amazon Prime Video, is yet another holiday-oriented action movie,...

Although Freaks & Geeks only got one season, its female protagonist was blessed with two love interests, thanks to a couple of talented young actors.

Jason Segel recently recalled the audition process for the Paul Feig-created NBC teen dramedy, which ran from 1999 to 2000 with EP Judd Apatow, featuring himself as aimless drummer Nick Andopolis, the eventual boyfriend of Linda Cardellini‘s overachiever Lindsay Weir.

“I was brought in for a callback with James Franco, and we were, as far as we knew, competing for the same part, because at the time, there was only one of those characters,” he told GQ. “Daniel and Nick were just one character at the time. So we went in and we auditioned against each other. They liked us both, and they split the part, and he became the cool one, and I became the goofy one.”

Segel added, “I always felt like Nick was a lot like me.

No Good Deed. Lisa Kudrow as Lydia in Episode 102 of No Good Deed. Cr. Saeed Adyani/Netflix © 2024 Lisa Kudrow, the Emmy-winning actress loved for her iconic performance in Friends, returns to the spotlight in the dark comedy No Good Deed. Created by Liz Feldman, the brilliant mind behind Dead to Me, the series dives into the lives of three families locked in a fierce competition over a house they each believe will solve their biggest problems. The show features an impressive cast that includes Ray Romano, Luke Wilson, O-t Fagbenle, Denis Leary, and Linda Cardellini. Kudrow was instantly drawn to the series, praising Feldman’s captivating vision and the incredible talent of her co-stars as key reasons for signing on.

On the nostalgic TV dramedy Freaks and Geeks, Jason Segel’s character Nick Andopolis was never going to be a world-famous drummer like his hero John Bonham — but he would have died young like one, apparently.

Of all the “gone too soon” TV shows from the late-1990s to early-2000s that enjoyed second lives as cult classics with devoted online followings long after cancellation, Freaks and Geeks is probably the last one that needs endless speculation over what would have happened if the original creators got to see their TV world out to its natural conclusion. After all, we know what happened to Middle America in the 1980s: It voted for Ronald Reagan, staggered through the recession and watched the gap between wages and Gdp slowly widen into a gaping chasm.

But for the freaks and geeks of William McKinley High School, their current ending is a little too...

Warning! This post contains Spoilers for Creature Commandos episode 4Creature Commandos episode 4 features several exciting Easter eggs and features, many of which connect to the greater Dcu in some major ways. While the focus of this new chapter is very much on the past and origins of Weasel (Sean Gunn), it also looks forward to a very dark future. As such, there are some very cool character debuts and nods to DC Comics as well as the brand-new DC Universe that's just begun.

As was seen in Creature Commandos episode 3, Task Force M successfully took down the Amazonian witch Circe (Anya Chalotra), only to be told that they'd just doomed the world by preventing her from killing Princess Ilana Rotovic (Maria Bakalova). Now, Creature Commandos largely takes place back at Belle Reve before Amanda Waller gives her monsters brand-new orders to go back to Pokolistan and do exactly what they'd just prevented Circe from doing.

What would a perfect look like living in the lifestyles of the rich and famous of Los Angeles? For one family, a perfect situation can go wrong at any time. In No Good Deed, the storyline follows a couple, Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano), who attempt to sell their Spanish-style LA home in the neighborhood of Los Feliz. The show was created by Liz Feldman.

Lydia, a former concert pianist, and Paul, a contractor with mounting debts, are trying to bury the secrets of the death of their son, Jacob (Wyatt Aubrey), that took place in their home. They hire a realtor, Greg (Matt Rogers), who showcases their home to three different families bidding for the Morgan house.

There are other buyers who are dying to purchase Lydia and Paul’s home as three families are curious to know the truth before making their offer.

Black Doves – Dec. 5 – Netflix

Keira Knightley in ‘Black Doves’

Keira Knightley stars as Helen Webb in Black Doves, an action filled spy show set in London at Christmas. Knighyley’s Webb is a dedicated wife, mother and spy. She has been secretly passing her politician husband’s secrets to the clandestine organization she works for, The Black Doves, for ten years.

When we first meet Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano) in No Good Deed, it appears the only topic the couple can agree on is their distaste for other people. While the couple can’t see eye to eye on the sale of their house — or the state of their marriage — they can both roll their eyes at indoor scarves and their neighbor Margo (Emmy-nominated Linda Cardellini).

But, after the trials and tribulations of Season 1, the Morgans are closer than ever (and have even more reason to dislike Margo). They end No Good Deedas a united front, smiling at their daughter Emily (Chloe East) and seemingly free at last from the trauma that plagued them throughout their years in their longtime home. Paul even appears to have an appreciation for Lydia’s more mystical theories about the continued presence of their late son, Jacob (Wyatt Aubrey), whose...

Lisa Kudrow’s new trending show on Netflix, No Good Deed, proves she should’ve starred in a dark comedy series a long time ago. Kudrow has been a screen legend since starring as Phoebe Buffay in the cast of Friends. Like her five co-stars, Kudrow was launched to superstardom by her 10 seasons on the show. But she’s also had a great career outside her time on Friends. She starred in the cult classic Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion with Mira Sorvino and gave scene-stealing turns in movies like Neighbors, Booksmart, and Hotel for Dogs.

No Good Deed is the latest show from Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman. Feldman acted as showrunner and executive producer, and even directed a couple of episodes. Netflix dropped all eight episodes of No Good Deed on December 12, and it’s quickly become a big hit with audiences. Much like Dead to Me,...

Lisa Kudrow is opening up about the moment when she received the offer to star in Netflix’s new series No Good Deed and why she didn’t even need to read the script before saying “yes.”

The show follows Lydia and Paul (Kudrow and Ray Romano), who are now empty nesters and decide to start anew by listing their gorgeous, century-old home in one of L.A.’s most desirable neighborhoods. As they struggle to hide the dark and dangerous secrets that linger inside their longtime home, Paul and Lydia begin to realize that the only way they’ll escape the past is to finally face it.

Lisa participated in the Skip Intro podcast and explained why she knew she needed to be part of the project.

Warning! Spoilers for Netflix's No Good Deed ahead!

Margo mentions that Jd was "5150ed" in No Good Deed, but what does this actually mean? Margo and Jd (Linda Cardellini and Luke Wilson) make up one of the three couples trying to buy the Morgan house in Netflix's dark comedy series, and like all the rest, they carry a lot of big secrets. Each episode of No Good Deed seemed to reveal something new about all these characters until it's finally unveiled who was really responsible for murdering Jacob Morgan. For a moment, it seemed like Jd might have been the killer since he had just recently had a violent mental breakdown.

Wilson's No Good Deed character was a soap opera star until he brought a .40 caliber pistol on set during a mental breakdown. Jd was subsequently written off the show and hasn't been able to find any work ever since.

The No Good Deed series used several real-world locations for filming. 

Now streaming on Netflix, the new dark comedy from Dead To Me creator Liz Feldman centers on a California house as three families do everything they can (potentially crossing some lines while doing so) to purchase the home. 

The series began streaming on Thursday, December 12, and stars A-listers like Linda Cardellini, Lisa Kudrow, and Ray Romano.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for No Good Deed season 1!No Good Deed will surely be considered for another installment, but instead of a traditional season 2, Netflix's dark comedy should go in a different direction. The series came from Liz Feldman, who Netflix subscribers might be familiar with as the creator of Dead to Me, another comedy-drama that ran for three seasons on the streaming service. Though the shows aren't connected, Dead to Me's Linda Cardellini was among No Good Deed's cast, alongside notable names like Lisa Kudrow, Ray Romano, Denis Leary, and Luke Wilson.

No Good Deed's story primarily followed the Morgan couple attempting to sell their house, with an ensemble cast of family members and potential buyers being added to the mix with several interweaving subplots. Feldman incorporated significant mysteries as couples attempted to buy the Morgan house in No Good Deed, including the secrets surrounding...

Every great TV show delicately walks along the fine border of captivating its audience and losing them in the process, and some storylines go too far one way or the other. Sometimes writers double down on a plot that they hope can be compelling but ends up being bothersome. Even the best TV shows of all time can sometimes overrely on specific stories, to the detrement of their overarching appeal.

From stereotypical personalities in Young Sheldon to repetitive tropes in The Bear season 4, it's not uncommon to see attempts at long-form storytelling take a wrong turn. However, too much of anything can be toxic, which can describe a number of TV shows over the years that lost momentum due to weak overarching plots that overstayed their welcome. Here are ten TV shows that took a storyline and ran it straight into the ground.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for No Good Deed season 1!The creator behind Netflix's Dead to Me is back with a new dark comedy titled No Good Deed, and the show features a surprising MCU reunion that doesn't go unnoticed. No Good Deed's cast is led by sitcom vets Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano, alongside an impressive ensemble cast that also includes Linda Cardellini, who previously starred in Liz Feldman's Dead to Me. Like Dead to Me, No Good Deed is full of twists and turns surrounding a mysterious death.

The death at the center of No Good Deed happens to be Jacob Morgan, the son of Kudrow and Romano's characters, who both have been holding onto their own secrets. By No Good Deed's ending, the circumstances surrounding Jacob's death are unveiled, as the show satisfyingly ties up a majority of the loose ends, including who gets the Morgan house.

“Dead to Me” creator Liz Feldman is back with another addictive dark comedy on Netflix, “No Good Deed.” Starring comedy TV greats Lisa Kudrow (“Friends”) and Ray Romano (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) as a married couple seeking to sell their gorgeous LA home after the death of their son. But as strangers flood through their home, they open the door to more than prospective buyers, dredging up scandal and secrets in the process.

It’s a quick binge-watch, which means you might wind up craving more suburban thrills before you know it. Not to worry, here’s a curated list of shows like “No Good Deed” to watch next.

Netflix ‘Dead to Me’

Naturally, Liz Feldman’s first Netflix series is a must-watch for fans of her new one. You’ll find a lot of tonal similarities between the two, though “Dead to Me” is more about friendship, less about marriage.

After eight episodes of twists and turns, the whole truth finally comes into focus in No Good Deed‘s finale — but where can the dark comedy go from here?

Throughout the season, viewers had pieced together that Jacob’s sister Emily (played by Generation’s Chloe East) had shot and killed her brother after mistaking him for a burglar. In Episode 8, however, Lydia (Friends’ Lisa Kudrow) and Paul (Ray Romano) learn new details about their son’s death.

Jd Campell's house burned down at the end of No Good Deed, though it's never explicitly stated how this happened. Throughout the series, this character (played by Luke Wilson) was desperate not to lose his wife, whom he felt was one of the final good things in his life. However, Jd had to learn the hard way that Margo (Linda Cardellini) wasn't who he thought she was. Still, it seems he managed to get his own revenge in No Good Deed.

Netflix's dark comedy series follows Paul and Lydia Morgan (Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow) as they put their Los Angeles home on the market. As they do this, however, their biggest secrets threaten to burst at the seams, especially as various couples compete to buy the Morgans' home. Jd and Margo were among those offering bids, but they lost their shot...

Warning! Spoilers for Netflix's No Good Deed ahead!

There was no question that Margo Starling was up to no good in No Good Deed, but her overall plan and connection to Jacob Morgan's murder was the real kicker. This character, played by Linda Cardellini, is the despised neighbor of Paul and Lydia Morgan (Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow), obsessed with expensive handbags, jewelry, and real estate. Margo is married to soap actor Jd Campbell (Luke Wilson), but it's quickly evident in No Good Deed that she has engaged in countless affairs over the years. Still, these weren't random exploits. Everything Margo did was part of a grander scheme.

All the characters in No Good Deed had their own secrets—that's the entire point. Paul and Lydia themselves had waited until enough time had passed before putting their house on the market so that they wouldn't have to disclose...

Liz Feldman’s No Good Deed has suspense, emotion and humor all in one. The murder mystery series starring Lisa Kudrow, Ray Romano, Abbi Jacobson, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu. O-t Fagbenle, Teyonah Parris, Luke Wilson and Linda Cardellini arrived on Netflix Dec. 12.

Throughout the series, several songs emphasize moments or themes in the show, like that of home, which is punctuated by Ozzy Osbourne and Motley Crue songs. A Eurythmics number sets the tone at a big scene in the finale, and a Bon Jovi song also pulls at the sinister side of the story.

Several other original songs performed by different characters put some spin on the series, which follows the Morgans, Lydia (Kudrow) and Paul (Romano) as they attempt to sell their house to reasonable buyers so that they can move on from a tragic event that happened there a few years ago. Thus, three couples — Leslie (Jacobson...

Trust us: Nothing good will come from skipping Netflix’s newest dark comedy series “No Good Deed.” Created by Liz Feldman of the Emmy-nominated “Dead to Me,” the eight-episode series shares connective tissue with the earlier comedy, as both are set in affluent areas of Los Angeles and revolve around characters who are being less than truthful with one another. Emmy winners Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano anchor the series as Lydia and Paul, a grieving couple attempting to sell their longtime home in the desirable Los Feliz neighborhood in the wake of their son’s death. While multiple interested parties believe the gorgeous Spanish-style villa on a bright corner lot will fix all their problems, there is a darkness that lingers within its walls, and Lydia and Paul must hide the truth about what happened inside the house long enough to sell it. With a stellar ensemble that also includes Linda Cardellini,...

Note: The following contains major spoilers for the “No Good Deed” finale

At the heart of “No Good Deed” is one core mystery: who actually shot Jacob? Well, in the season finale, we finally get a definitive answer.

Throughout the series, now streaming on Netflix, the answer tends to change as pieces of the mystery are revealed. The official report has Jacob’s murderer listed as a home invader. But why would Paul (Ray Romano) and Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) go to such lengths to keep the autopsy sealed and the murder hidden then?

Well, because it wasn’t a home invader. As the series progresses, it initially looks like perhaps Paul or Lydia themselves shot their son. When they enlist the help of Paul’s brother Mikey (Denis Leary) to cover things up, it definitely looks like a murder.

But, in the penultimate episode of the season, we discover that...

Spoiler Alert: The following reveals major plot points for No Good Deed on Netflix.

Two out of the three couples competing for the Los Feliz house in Liz Feldman’s No Good Deed end up getting what they want by the time the finale rolls around.

Just as the layers of the house owned by Paul (Ray Romano) and Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow) are peeled back by three couples very keen to move into the dwelling — Jd Campbell (Luke Wilson) and Margo Starling (Linda Cardellini), Dennis Sampson (O-t Fagbenle) and Carla Owens (Teyonah Parris) and Leslie Fisher (Abbi Jacobson) and Sarah Weber (Poppy Liu) — secrets come to light as the process gets tangled up with the dark history of the Derby Drive home.

The Netflix black comedy follows three couples and their various secrets as they attempt to purchase a house in Los Feliz, one of which is Dennis and Carla (O-t Fagbenle and Teyonah Parris). These two are recently married and have a baby on the way, and Dennis especially thinks that Paul and Lydia Morgan's (Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow) house would be the perfect place to raise him. However, No Good Deed sees Dennis become concerned that he won't live long enough to watch this happen.

Dennis was raised by a single mother, Denise, with whom he maintained a frustratingly close relationship during his marriage to Carla. It even seemed for a time that Denise would help the couple purchase the Morgan...

It's the weekend again, and you might be looking for new releases to binge-watch on Netflix that you can watch this December 13-15. Here are some of the titles that you should look out for.

Your Next Favorite Binge on Netflix

The new comedy-drama series No Good Deed was finally released on Netflix just in time as you're looking for shows to binge this week. The new original is coming from Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman.

The series is about the highs and lows of searching for a safe, happy home and just how far we're willing to go to protect ourselves and our loved ones in the process.

The star-studded cast includes Linda Cardellini, O-t Fagbenle, Abbi Jacobson, Lisa Kudrow, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu, Teyonah Parris, Ray Romano, and Luke Wilson.

No Good Deed is a family/criminal drama that is about a murder that was neatly covered up three years ago. Unfortunately, it comes up again after all this while, and the characters in that universe find out the details leading up to the murder and discover who killed the victim. It is not a serious investigative drama, but this show has characters who are rich, nosy, sad, yet hypocritical. Most of the people in the show are married and getting on with their lives when, inadvertently, a sale of a beautiful mansion opens up a Pandora’s box.

Lydia

Before Everybody Loves Raymond, Peter Boyle appeared in Joe (1970), The Candidate (1972), Young Frankenstein (1974) and Taxi Driver (1976), as well as on and off-Broadway. Fans adored him in the role of Ray and Robbie's deadpan, slightly cranky dad, Frank.

However, off-screen, he was nothing like his coarse character. Instead, he was a friendly, warmhearted guy.

"He made me feel welcome," said Ray Romano. "He made me feel part of the club."

Shortly after the sitcom wrapped, Boyle died of multiple myeloma and heart disease in 2006 at age 71.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for No Good Deed Season 1.] After eight episodes of drama, heartache, family strife, and very big secrets, the bidding war for the enchanting and desirable Loz Feliz home at the heart of No Good Deed has come to an end: The keys to Derby Drive are in the hands of suburban couple Leslie (Abbi Jacobson) and Sarah (Poppy Liu). But the reveal of who ended up in the house was far from the biggest twist or surprise that the Liz Feldman-created show served up. One of those big twists? Linda Cardellini‘s secretive and sultry Margo Starling, who turned out to not just be another interested buyer hoping to turn the home into a profit, but a manipulative woman with a hidden past who played a role in murdering Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul’s (Ray Romano) son three years ago.

Netflix's new dark comedy No Good Deed is an excellent show for those who loved Dead to Me. No Good Deed has a star-studded cast of characters, including Friends' Lisa Kudrow, Everybody Loves Raymond's Ray Romano, and Dead to Me's Linda Cardellini. The show's creator is Liz Feldman, who created the iconic dark comedy Dead to Me.

No Good Deed is about a couple looking to sell their home, which quickly turns into a hotly-contested war between potential buyers.

Liz Feldman is back with a new series called “No Good Deed,” and just as she did in her Netflix series “Dead to Me,” she’s set up a pretty good mystery.

Now streaming on Netflix, the show centers on Paul and Lydia, who are trying to sell their very popular and desired home. For them, it’s become haunted after their son was killed there three years earlier.

His death is labeled a casualty of a home invasion, but nothing is quite what it seems on this one. And there are plenty of potential suspects in and around the neighborhood.

Here are the faces you’ll need to know.

Netflix Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow)

Lydia Morgan is a renowned pianist, but after her son is killed, she can’t keep her hands from shaking and temporarily loses her ability to play. She’s brought to life by “Friends” and “Time Bandits” star Lisa Kudrow.

James Gunn’s first release after his DC takeover, Creature Commandos, is the talk of the town these days. Although mostly for its brilliance, a controversy or two has also sparked around it. Giving people even more to talk about, the trailer for episode 4 dropped earlier today, with cameos from Superman and Wonder Woman.

What is even more interesting, however, are the rumors about even more cameos from some of Dcu’s most talked about superheroes. From Booster Gold to Supergirl, rumors allege that the next episode will be nothing less than a DC superhero convention. As the episode is a few days away from airing, it’s hard to confirm unless more official information comes out. The internet, however, is making the most of it with their own predictions about the upcoming episode.

Right in the nick of time before the curtains closed on 2024, Netflix sneaked in one final new comedy series, and it's a good one. From Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman, the dark comedy No Good Deed starring Emmy Award winners Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano debuted on Dec. 12.

Kudrow and Romano take on the roles of married couple Lydia and Paul Morgan, who are attempting to finally part ways with their family home three years after a tragedy altered the course of their lives. While selling their beloved but tainted home, they encounter three couples interested in placing bids, as well as an unfriendly reappearance from Paul's brother Mikey (Denis Leary).

The star-studded dark comedy — which also stars Linda Cardellini, Owen Wilson, Abbi Jacobson, Poppy Liu, O-t Fagbenle, and Teyonah Parris — packs quite the punch as it untangles the secrets that befell the Morgan home. But the series doesn't...
