Fresh and fun

How this show is rated overall below a 7, but every episode is rated above 7 shows how misunderstood this show is. Rotten tomato currently has this at an 88% fresh rating which is probably more accurate.

Glover and Erskine share great chemistry in this update and re-imagining of the film.

The awkward interactions of two strangers navigating being suddenly 'married' and learning about one another is what makes this show great. It's the silences where they are measuring each other up, trying to figure out if whats happening between them is real or just spy shenanigans.

The missions around their married existence vary from simple to outright dangerous and the show manages to balance the character nicely within the action so that their development never slows.

The vibe is very Glover who has his hands all over the project. The scripts are lean, the missions fun and the overall vibe of the show is pretty slick. Erskine totally holds her own and for anyone who has seen 'plus one' with her and Jack Quaid, you'll know she can just hold the screen or steal the scene with little effort.

Do yourself a favor and watch the show.
