Open and Shut

It's so nice to feel good about something sparkling and original. This series came out of the blue. Steve Martin shows his comic genius by playing a straight role and nailing it. Don't get me wrong. He is still comedic but under great restraint. I thought the multiple story telling was very creative, though it didn't always hit home. The three cast member have great chemistry. I also thought the motives driving the plot worked very well. The other people in the building were quite interesting. Good setup for the next season.

The reveal from last episode came into play well. We get a satisfying ending to this story but also an intriguing start to the next. I loved Steve Martin and Martin Short way before this but seeing them in a TV show was great. Selena Gomez was surprisingly good and the story was interesting, never boring or for filler. Not gonna lie, it's one of my favorite shows that's come out in a while.

I needed a while to get into the show, but by the third episode I was hooked and charmed by its warmth, humour and the wonderful chemistry between the three lead characters, and of course, by the comic genius that is Steve Martin.

Reminded me tonally of the equally binge-worthy "Kominsky Method" in its compassionate exploration of human foibles, the value of friendship and loneliness.

A second series in in production, apparently, which is great news.

I really loved the finale episode, it was by far the best episode of this show. But I didn't like the scene where they all meet face to face with the killer and then what happens and that happened so easily... Last scene of this episode was super awesome. I started this show just because of Selena Gomez (Mabel) because I love her songs but surprisingly I liked Charles and Oliver even more. Also Jan was amazing!

Overall, I loved the concept, cast and the theme song. Waiting for Season 2.

This is suspenseful funny dramatic and much much more. We love this series. Haven't missed an episode and we are really hoping there will be more than just this 10 episode run for this series. Great new series are hard to come by these days. This is one we will watch the the end and rewatch. Already waiting to find out if there will be more episodes with a new storyline. This is well worth the watch. Steve Martin Martin Short and Selena Gomez are a brilliant team in this who done it? I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Its a great watch. Cant wait to see whats next for this series!!
