Netflix's 'No Good Deed': A Star-Studded Mystery Comedy with Mixed Reviews
TL;DR Summary
Netflix's new series "No Good Deed" struggles to deliver on its promising premise, despite a strong cast including Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow. The show, which mixes elements of "Desperate Housewives" and "Dead To Me," suffers from a lack of suspense, disjointed story arcs, and underdeveloped characters. While it attempts to explore themes of grief and belonging through the story of a couple selling their home, the execution falls flat, making it a questionable investment of time for viewers.
