SEASON 2 PLEASE!!

This show is absolutely off beat - and wonderful! And absolutely NOT PC.

Florida is a character in its own right. Imagine that! And there is a beloved alligator that roams around doing what beloved alligators do.

It's a story of love - until certain things morph and it turns to hate - in a most comical and logical way.

I started watching this because of Luke Kirby and rapidly found myself enjoying everyone involved. Kirby is his usual perfection in playing a handsome and deeply flawed man who truly only wants the best for the people in his life that he loves. And his beloved alligator.

If you want something offbeat and smart - this is your next binge.

I don't know what exactly made me watch this, I found this show by chance and all I knew about it was Luke Kirby from his supporting role in Marvelous Mrs Maisel. It's not top draw acting, feel like it's on par with comedy skits or tiktoks, it's bearable it's just unbelievable. The opening sequence in the first episodes basically scream Florida man and that's pretty much what you get as the series progresses, a lot about the show just seems unrealistic or far fetched but it doesn't feel like the writers are trying to convince you it is.

It's a Roku original so I didn't have any high expectations, maybe that's why I'm enjoying it. It's not a cop show, it's put as comedy/ romance genre but I think it's more of a mystery drama. There are scenes that are meant to be funny that aren't, but doesn't get annoying because it doesn't look like they're trying to hard. It's paced really well as the story progresses pretty swiftly, nothing feels rushed or spent too much time on.

First couple episodes are pretty plot heavy, so much happens in an episode that would usually happen across several in other series. It's almost refreshing to see so many big reveals and twists in only just the first couple episodes. Even though, there's still a lot left to unpack and the series isn't horrible so I'll keep watching. It's not the best show around but it knows what's it's trying to be and I like it for that, doesn't bite off more than it can chew.

The story is convincing, suprising, funny, orignial, smart. The script is believable and the dialogue is funny. The authors have done a good job.

The actors are all very good and convincing. The leads have great chemistry with each other and are a terrific team. Luke Kirby was know for me but Tiana Okoye also did fantastic. One of the main characters is nature and landscape and the house crocodile must also be mentioned.

The quality of the series is fantastic when you compare it with the same old shows that is being released. I've been waiting a long time for the second season because quality has become rare. I hope we will get it.

I love the fact that this series is showing two different sides of two different characters. Great acting from both lead actors. I have fun and laugh when watching this. You just have to take your time to sit down and watch it for you to enjoy it.

Luke is doing a create job with his character. Very nice to watch. Tiana is amazing too. I can't wait to see the secret she's hiding. It's going to be a tricky one.

Luke's mom is an amazing actress. She delivers her character well. So did every other actors in this series. Like I said before, you need to take your time and relax to enjoy this series.

Agoraphobic Bell Prescott (Luke Kirby) hasn't left his home since the murder of his wife Vida Perez Prescott (Lorenza Izzo) five years ago. He's living with his mother Millicent Prescott (Lesley Ann Warren). When he finds a body on his property, he calls 911. Speed-trap cop Cammie Lorde (Tiana Okoye) answers the call. She's the only one left standing on the police force after the town went under. It's a town full of quirky characters. Most of them hate Bell for abandoning his revitalization plan. County Sheriff Grant (Glenn Morshower) is supposed to be the one investigating local crimes. Cammie keeps investigating including Vida's murder with help from Bell and others.

It's quirky, but not actually funny. It has a murder mystery, but it's not actually dark. The characters are all likeable or fun. It's a Roku show. They don't have a long track record. I don't think it ever had a chance. Another studio may give this more rope. It's never anything groundbreaking. It's too bad but it's not a big lost.
