No Good Deed

Netflix has it listed as a comedy It stars Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow and Will Ferrell is a producer. This would normally be enough for me to run a mile, except that 1) i love Friends and 2) i was a bit desperate to find something to watch

I expected to give it about 20 minutes but watched it all in 2 days and really enjoyed it. There were enough twists and turns to keep me interested and I was wondering if they might make another season with a new storyline and characters because I would like to see what else the writers could come up with.

It's definitely worth a watch. It's one of those stories where you are pretty sure you know what's going on, and then you don't, then you think you do buuuttt then you don't again.

The only complain I have is that I'm back where I was 2 days ago needing to find something else to watch.

Maybe is not a perfect 10 but I've just binged it in one go....till 2am so that's my review in itself🙃

Lots of twists and turns, you guessing to the end...

Short episodes and like many other times on Netflix next episode swiftly starting in few seconds so I just could not turned it off till was over. Thomorrow will be rough wake up due to lack of sleep but it was worth it!

Watch yourself and enjoy, not the best maybe but very cleverly done! I did like it a lot.

Lisa still reminded me Phoebe from Friends like in every other movie but to be honest she was also quite watchable. Well done Netfli!

I was surprised to see the show rated as low as it is, but it made more sense after seeing a lot of the reviews explain how they didn't get past the first episode. The show is a mystery romp slow burn that may not be for everyone. I personally found it be to funny and entertaining with a tone particular to Liz Feldman that I enjoy. I really love the cast, and everyone's performance. I wasn't sold on Ray Romano at first because of my own biases (a lifetime of not being able to separate him from Every Loves Raymond) but that went away pretty quickly. All the various characters have their own side stories that form a tangled web of chaos which is gradually, although not fully, unraveled. By the last episode I was pretty invested in the story, despite working out the major twist very early on. I'm not mad at that though. I'd love to see more of this show and really hope they get a second season.

I was hesitant but hopeful when I saw the casting, and I'm happy to say they exceeded all expectations. The pacing is just right, striking a balance that fits perfectly with a drama/thriller-lite genre. The story is both deep and engaging, and I never once felt like I was being strung along. The characters are cleverly crafted modern caricatures of the upper class in the area, and their portrayal becomes increasingly humorous as the story unfolds. The dialogue feels natural and helps bring the characters to life. The visuals are simple but effective, adding to the overall feel of the story without trying too hard.

I always tend to get a little nervous when such big names are involved in a limited Netflix series. But it felt like this cast really delivered and hit all the marks. Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow have a certain chemistry that was perfect for this story. I'm always happy to see Linda Cardellini in a role like this as well.

Great pacing, adequate suspense, lots of comedic relief. For once, I didn't expect the twist ending and each storyline felt resolved by the last episode. I really enjoyed it!

Would absolutely recommend if you're looking for a palette cleanser in this new fast-paced streaming world.
