Netflix's new dark comedy series No Good Deed from Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman has been a last-minute end of the year hit. The series debuted on Dec. 12 and has been a fixture on the streamer's top 10 most popular shows ranking ever since. Obviously, viewers are loving the darkly hilarious tragicomedy-mystery and they want more from the twisty series.

No Good Deed stars Emmy Award-winning sitcom veterans Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano as Lydia and Paul Morgan, a married couple attempting to unload their beloved Los Angeles family home in the aftermath of a closely shielded tragedy. The excellent series cleverly walks a tightrope between comedy, drama, and mystery, nailing every single one thanks to its writing and cast.

Even though the season finale wraps up the Morgan family's storyline and doesn't offer any leading cliffhangers for Lydia and Paul for a prospective followup season, that doesn't mean...

Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano have been the sitcom darlings of yesteryear. Through their work in Friends and Everybody Loves Raymond, they have become prominent figures in both film and television. However, besides a few exceptions, they have not shown the full extent of their dramatic acting skills. “No Good Deed” on Netflix offers them both a chance to be grounded performers who can effectively portray the gravity and the complexity of grief. This dark comedy, written by Liz Feldman, shows Kudrow and Romano as a middle-aged couple trying to sell their house a while after their son’s unfortunate death.

The series mainly revolves around the mystery behind the son’s death to realize the cause and the culprit behind a shocking turn of events. While doing so, it digs deeper into the lives of three families, who hope to buy their house.

Spoilers ahead.

No Good Deed (Season...

What would a perfect look like living in the lifestyles of the rich and famous of Los Angeles? For one family, a perfect situation can go wrong at any time. In No Good Deed, the storyline follows a couple, Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano), who attempt to sell their Spanish-style LA home in the neighborhood of Los Feliz. The show was created by Liz Feldman.

Lydia, a former concert pianist, and Paul, a contractor with mounting debts, are trying to bury the secrets of the death of their son, Jacob (Wyatt Aubrey), that took place in their home. They hire a realtor, Greg (Matt Rogers), who showcases their home to three different families bidding for the Morgan house.

There are other buyers who are dying to purchase Lydia and Paul’s home as three families are curious to know the truth before making their offer.

When we first meet Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano) in No Good Deed, it appears the only topic the couple can agree on is their distaste for other people. While the couple can’t see eye to eye on the sale of their house — or the state of their marriage — they can both roll their eyes at indoor scarves and their neighbor Margo (Emmy-nominated Linda Cardellini).

But, after the trials and tribulations of Season 1, the Morgans are closer than ever (and have even more reason to dislike Margo). They end No Good Deedas a united front, smiling at their daughter Emily (Chloe East) and seemingly free at last from the trauma that plagued them throughout their years in their longtime home. Paul even appears to have an appreciation for Lydia’s more mystical theories about the continued presence of their late son, Jacob (Wyatt Aubrey), whose...

The house central to the plot of Liz Feldman’s Netflix series “No Good Deed” should make you drool — and then question just how much stock you put in where you live. A gorgeous Spanish revival house in the Los Feliz neighborhood of L.A. might seem like a quick fix to a lot of problems, but as production designer Nina Ruscio told IndieWire, “Wherever you go, there you are.”

But good luck finding the house Lydia (Lisa Kudrow) and Paul Morgan (Ray Romano) are trying to sell; the exterior is real, but the Architectural Digest-ready interior is pure fabrication.

“ The driving force is that everybody wants to have this home,” Ruscio said. “So how could I create an experience for people seeing it that made it aspirational enough to cross a lot of different character types?”

As usual, the answer was in the details. The Spanish-style house is an immediately recognizable staple of L.

No Good Deed is a family/criminal drama that is about a murder that was neatly covered up three years ago. Unfortunately, it comes up again after all this while, and the characters in that universe find out the details leading up to the murder and discover who killed the victim. It is not a serious investigative drama, but this show has characters who are rich, nosy, sad, yet hypocritical. Most of the people in the show are married and getting on with their lives when, inadvertently, a sale of a beautiful mansion opens up a Pandora’s box.

Lydia

The amazing Lisa Kudrow is Lydia Morgan, a famous pianist who is married to Paul, a rich businessman. They have been going through a very rough patch in their marriage since the death of their son, Jacob. They don’t talk about him, yet they feel they are somehow responsible for the death.

Netflix's new dark comedy No Good Deed is an excellent show for those who loved Dead to Me. No Good Deed has a star-studded cast of characters, including Friends' Lisa Kudrow, Everybody Loves Raymond's Ray Romano, and Dead to Me's Linda Cardellini. The show's creator is Liz Feldman, who created the iconic dark comedy Dead to Me. Feldman mentioned in Netflix Tudum's behind-the-scenes footage that the inspiration behind No Good Deed came to her when she was looking to purchase a home, saying, "There are so many secrets in the buying and selling of a house."

No Good Deed is about a couple looking to sell their home, which quickly turns into a hotly-contested war between potential buyers. No Good Deed's trailer illustrates that this show will not be an ordinary sitcom, suggesting something sinister lurks within the walls of the house. The series is available...

Liz Feldman is back with a new series called “No Good Deed,” and just as she did in her Netflix series “Dead to Me,” she’s set up a pretty good mystery.

Now streaming on Netflix, the show centers on Paul and Lydia, who are trying to sell their very popular and desired home. For them, it’s become haunted after their son was killed there three years earlier.

His death is labeled a casualty of a home invasion, but nothing is quite what it seems on this one. And there are plenty of potential suspects in and around the neighborhood.

Here are the faces you’ll need to know.

Netflix Lydia Morgan (Lisa Kudrow)

Lydia Morgan is a renowned pianist, but after her son is killed, she can’t keep her hands from shaking and temporarily loses her ability to play. She’s brought to life by “Friends” and “Time Bandits” star Lisa Kudrow.

Right in the nick of time before the curtains closed on 2024, Netflix sneaked in one final new comedy series, and it's a good one. From Dead to Me creator Liz Feldman, the dark comedy No Good Deed starring Emmy Award winners Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano debuted on Dec. 12.

Kudrow and Romano take on the roles of married couple Lydia and Paul Morgan, who are attempting to finally part ways with their family home three years after a tragedy altered the course of their lives. While selling their beloved but tainted home, they encounter three couples interested in placing bids, as well as an unfriendly reappearance from Paul's brother Mikey (Denis Leary).

The star-studded dark comedy — which also stars Linda Cardellini, Owen Wilson, Abbi Jacobson, Poppy Liu, O-t Fagbenle, and Teyonah Parris — packs quite the punch as it untangles the secrets that befell the Morgan home. But the series doesn't...

Comedic-driven mystery shows have become all the norm with modern television, whether it's the eight-time Emmy winning Only Murders in the Building or Kaley Cuoco's Based on a True Story. Creator Liz Feldman previously saw success with the Linda Cardellini and Christina Applegate-led Dead to Me and now she's back with Netflix's No Good Deed, which also reunites her with the former Emmy-nominated star, but it doesn't quite find the same spark as their prior work.

No Good Deed is a dark comedy series created by Liz Feldman for Netflix and stars Ray Romano as Paul Morgan in the lead role. Out of money and at the end of his rope, Paul considers selling his beautiful villa so he can pay his debts off and leave Los Angeles, but as he and two other families soon discover, the past is difficult to outrun.

As three different families show interest in buying their coveted house, the hidden secrets of the Morgans' past slowly begin to creep out. Everyone wants to know the truth, but no one wants to be unburdened by it more than Lydia and Paul.

No Good Deed does an excellent job of trickling out the shocking event from the past that transpired in their home, why they're keeping it a secret, and what...

'The Doll' with Ossi Oswalda and Hermann Thimig: Early Ernst Lubitsch satirical fantasy starring 'the German Mary Pickford' has similar premise to that of the 1925 Buster Keaton comedy 'Seven Chances.' 'The Doll': San Francisco Silent Film Festival presented fast-paced Ernst Lubitsch comedy starring the German Mary Pickford – Ossi Oswalda Directed by Ernst Lubitsch (So This Is Paris, The Wedding March), the 2017 San Francisco Silent Film Festival presentation The Doll / Die Puppe (1919) has one of the most amusing mise-en-scènes ever recorded.
