It's funny, and both leads play their characters straight enough that you'll buy into their lives. The premise is beyond ridiculous, so the script strains hard to get you to suspend disbelief. Still, well worth a watch.

This comboA married couple (Kaley Cuoco & Chris Messina) decides to jump on the true crime bandwagon by creating their own podcast. Things get interesting when they meet an actual serial killer (Tom Bateman) who decides to team up with them. This combo comedy/thriller mostly works, but like so many series now, it could have been shorter. If you wade thru the wasted scenes in the early eps, there are surprises and shocks to entertain. Cuoco always tries too hard to be funny, so she never works for me, but there are sufficient situations and other characters who add to the humor. The series has its flaws and takes a while to take off, but once it gets rolling the dark comic elements and shocking surprises manage to ultimately payoff. (It ends with a cliffhanger, signaling a 2nd season). Expand

From the brutal start that felt like it was paying homage to Drew Barrymore's iconic murder scene in 'Scream' to the shocking moments that followed, each episode held my attention.

Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina deliver magnetic performances, making their characters relatable and engaging. Tom Bateman's portrayal of the very scary Matt Pierce brings a chilling authenticity to the role of a serial killer. The Peacock series pokes fun at society's obsession with murder, satirizing our fascination with serial killers and true crime podcasts. After the first episode, I couldn't resist binge-watching the rest. The fast-paced events and gripping plot kept me on the edge of my seat. Each episode flew by in minutes, enhanced by a fun soundtrack that heightened the chaotic atmosphere of the show.

It's a must-watch for fans of dark comedies and true crime podcasts. With its blend of lighthearted drama, and intense moments, it satisfies cravings for captivating storytelling. Cuoco, Messina, and Bateman deliver standout performances, creating characters that were relatable, engaging, and endearing.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really want a continuation of the series, it is impossible to tear myself away, the actors are chosen perfectly. Kaley Cuoco is incredible, I can't imagine anyone else in her role. A modern interesting series about how a couple who will soon have a child desperately tries to escape from the financial abyss and agrees to secretly host a podcast with a serial killer. And so, they are finally becoming popular, but they do not yet know where it will lead them soon. Definitely worth watching! Expand
