Who Is Tim Kono?

Great second episode. It really made me care for the victim.

This episode naturally begins to fill in background about the victim Tim Kono, while focusing squarely on Selena Gomez's character Mabel. Well-directed flashbacks of her and the Hardy Boys group add plenty of clues and even another significant victim to the story, while keeping Mabel an enigmatic personality to consume our attention, while the comics Martin and Martin continue to amuse with their droll antics.

Fantasy elements continue to intrude on the action, and the extreme caricatures of the other neighbors are a bit much, but the show is definitely engaging, undoubtedly due to the casting of the principal trio.

Selma Gomez acting is horrible. Martin Short acting is sub par. Steve Martin is Steve Martin.

Who is Tim Kono? The trio begins to investigate just who the dead man was; they hope that a memorial with residents at the Arconia will provide answers. One of the three has a secret.

It's delightful; it is the most charming, engaging, and amusing thing I've seen for some time. It just goes to show what can be done with a great cast and a terrific script; it was never going to fail.

RIP Evelyn; the memorial was such a funny scene; that was hilarious. It's very humorous, but in an intelligent way. I just love the job the production team did with it; it is so slick and well assembled. I'm enjoying the deep dive into Kono's character and past; who exactly was he?

Selena Gomez is a massive talent, but I cannot pick a favorite between them; the acting from each of them is on point, and the characters are so big.

8/10.

There is a definite decline in quality between episode one and the second episode of this show. Selena Gomez is a big part of the problem. She cannot act and she is far too young to be with two men in their seventies on a regular basis.

Another part of the problem is the writing is not nearly as good. An episode which is less than thirty minutes seems much longer than that.
