Season 1 Review:
“Dead to Me” creator Liz Feldman has once again delivered a whip-smart and heartfelt comedy for Netflix. This time, the series follows married couple Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano) as they attempt to sell their luxurious Los Feliz home. While the concept appears slight, what unfolds is anything but. .... She has mastered an expansive ensemble series. Each couple that desires the Los Feliz house feels as fleshed out as Lydia and Paul, and just as entertaining.

Season 1 Review:
What gives No Good Deed extra oomph is the ongoing murder mystery that unravels slowly over the eight episodes. The action flashes back and forth through time and the suspects are many. The ultimate culprit is a great plot twist that I, for one, did not see coming. And, thanks to Kudrow and Romano, the finale hits hard emotionally.

Season 1 Review:
The series excels as both a whodunit and a deeper examination of marriage and relationships, and how much our partnerships can tolerate lies and trauma. Thoughtful and witty scripts, a magnetic cast and a lot of gags make the series work, adding up a lot of little bits to a great whole.

Season 1 Review:
“Deed” feels shallow and nonspecific in comparison to, say, “White Lotus,” and its mystery is not all that hard to crack. But there’s something alluring about watching the Spill Your Guts Fairy visit each character, the various rituals of shame, blame and contrition.

Season 1 Review:
Netflix’s eight-episode black comedy series doesn’t grab you with the audaciousness of “Dead to Me” and it doesn’t always realize the full potential of its characters, but does it ever have one killer cast and an intriguing premise that takes a good twist near the end.

Season 1 Review:
“No Good Deed” features such a solid setup — and such a stacked cast, led by Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow as a couple looking to sell their Los Angeles villa — that its overreliance on twists can be counterproductive. In the parlance of its central industry, once the eight-episode season settles into its story, one can appreciate the good bones beneath all the unnecessary fixtures.

Season 1 Review:
There are hijinks and it has the kind of insistently plinky score that says, “This is lighthearted!” But it also wants to take grief and guilt seriously. Tonally, it’s too disjointed to nail either style or find a way for them to work together. It is also yet another movie-length premise stretched into an eight-episode series.

Season 1 Review:
Despite a few fun performances (Rogers nails his loopy one-liners) from a cast of charming comedy veterans, it’s impossible to get invested in the fates of people we only know as pawns in Feldman’s messy chess game. A season-long series of flashbacks to a fateful night in the house feels cheaper with each episode.
