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.

A very slow burn however my review is not based on that alone,but overall it being not a great or bad series.

You also just didn't seem to care for any character,despite some things they were dealing with.

At moments it felt like it was trying to be a comedy(or dry comedy)about home selling,than it switches into something else.

The series was clichéd & there wasn't misunderstood parts,due to plotholes that leaves you feeling dissatisfied.

It was cast ok but maybe it was the script or director,which didn't bring a stronger story to the screen in spots.

The twist within a twist during,the last few episodes was actually good.

Not a series that would watch again,but ok enough to view once.

6.8 in rating, why!? I would give 8.5 if possible. I binged it over like a 24 hour time period. Ok at times a bit cheesy, but I just really like the casting and the acting, it feels warm and sincere, and the murder mystery is interesting enough with a small twist, without everything beeing all sad and miserable. The story is light and entertaining but has a certain amount of darkness due to the main story line. Like a nice but not too expesive piece of dark chockolate, covered in strawberry glaze. Give it a shot and you won't be disappointed. Don't expect a crime drama or true realism. This is an endearing comedy with a dark undernote.

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.

As Episode 1 of "No Good Deed" (2024 release; 8 episodes ranging from 30 to 39 min) opens, several couples are visiting an Open House of a Hollywood Spanish mansion that has gone on the market. We get to know Paul and Lydia, the owners of the house, and we are left wondering why they are selling this beauty. At this point we are 10 minutes into Episode 1.

Couple of comments: this is the latest from creator Liz Feldman ("Dead To Me'). Here she digs into the psyches of several couples, 3 of which who want to buy the house, and the sellers couple. The mini-series is plot heavy so the less said about that, the better. I will say that it took a couple of episodes to really get into this, so if you think it starts off a little slow, you are right but hang in there!. Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow are excellent as Paul and Lydia, but it's really al all-star cast (Luke Wilson, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu, Lina Cardellini, etc.). These are all short episodes, perfect for binge-watching. I saw the entire series over 2 evening, and was said to have the series come to an end.

"No Good Deed" started streaming on Neflix about a week ago. I watched this a few days ago. The series is currently rated 79% Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, and for good reason. If you are in the mood for a dark comedy, or are simply a fan of any of the all-star cast, I'd readily suggest you check this out, and draw your own conclusion.
