No Good Deed

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.

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.

Interesting little series... takes awhile to develop but worth the wait. Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) probably had the best performance. Don't understand Hollywood's obsession with using the "F-Word" every five seconds... very distracting and seriously, does anybody really constantly talk that way all the time? Plot was pretty good overall and held together well over eight episodes. As advertised, it certainly was a dark comedy but definitely had a lot of funny comedy included. Cast was pretty good... good enough to wish there were a few extra episodes to watch but all in all it kinda drew you in and made you want to see the finale.

Cast was really good, the story was really good. It truly was a slow burn, which I don't mind. However, execution was not great. For some reason, I hated every single character. They never grew to become lovable, as I originally expected. However, plot twists were there, which I appreciate. Even though it was very slow at times, it continued to through several twists which made the story overall more entertaining. A lot of the side stories were not needed, like a lot of the brother's story. His kid, him missing, all of that appeared to have some huge connotation which never truly landed. Bottom line: good story, good cast, not the best execution.

I was hesitant but hopeful when I saw the casting, and I'm happy to say they exceeded all expectations. The pacing is just right, striking a balance that fits perfectly with a drama/thriller-lite genre. The story is both deep and engaging, and I never once felt like I was being strung along. The characters are cleverly crafted modern caricatures of the upper class in the area, and their portrayal becomes increasingly humorous as the story unfolds. The dialogue feels natural and helps bring the characters to life. The visuals are simple but effective, adding to the overall feel of the story without trying too hard.
