Panhandle

This show is aiming for a very niche audience: our, 'detective with a burden' is battier than Monk, drunker than House, smarter than Sherlock, and doesn't seem to have a gun, although the charming Leslie Ann Warren playing his mother loves guns and is seen cleaning and oiling a vast collection of antique muskets and rifles which she uses to deter the advances of our tec's giant pet alligator. Our grounded sidekick with their own life is a single mom who is also the cop in charge of collecting enough speeding tickets to balance the city budget. A previous reviewer took issue with the scene where Bellwether (of course that's his name, but most folks call him Bell) smokes Toad but it's a bravura bit, and the show spent a bunch of FX money animating the horns and flies and stuff. As for the niche bit, it's written with the headiest post-peak-tv dialogue imaginable - "Do you prefer hefeweizen or muscadet with oysters?" is used as a distraction - and the metatext is the application of therapeutic practices in the damaged lives of our subjects, and how they are both going to make each other better people. Catch it now, there's no way in hell anything this far up my alley is going to be renewed.

I love the fact that this series is showing two different sides of two different characters. Great acting from both lead actors. I have fun and laugh when watching this. You just have to take your time to sit down and watch it for you to enjoy it.

Luke is doing a create job with his character. Very nice to watch. Tiana is amazing too. I can't wait to see the secret she's hiding. It's going to be a tricky one.

Luke's mom is an amazing actress. She delivers her character well. So did every other actors in this series. Like I said before, you need to take your time and relax to enjoy this series.

SEASON 2 PLEASE!!

This show is absolutely off beat - and wonderful! And absolutely NOT PC.

Florida is a character in its own right. Imagine that! And there is a beloved alligator that roams around doing what beloved alligators do.

It's a story of love - until certain things morph and it turns to hate - in a most comical and logical way.

I started watching this because of Luke Kirby and rapidly found myself enjoying everyone involved. Kirby is his usual perfection in playing a handsome and deeply flawed man who truly only wants the best for the people in his life that he loves. And his beloved alligator.

If you want something offbeat and smart - this is your next binge.

I don't know what exactly made me watch this, I found this show by chance and all I knew about it was Luke Kirby from his supporting role in Marvelous Mrs Maisel. It's not top draw acting, feel like it's on par with comedy skits or tiktoks, it's bearable it's just unbelievable. The opening sequence in the first episodes basically scream Florida man and that's pretty much what you get as the series progresses, a lot about the show just seems unrealistic or far fetched but it doesn't feel like the writers are trying to convince you it is.

It's a Roku original so I didn't have any high expectations, maybe that's why I'm enjoying it. It's not a cop show, it's put as comedy/ romance genre but I think it's more of a mystery drama. There are scenes that are meant to be funny that aren't, but doesn't get annoying because it doesn't look like they're trying to hard. It's paced really well as the story progresses pretty swiftly, nothing feels rushed or spent too much time on.

First couple episodes are pretty plot heavy, so much happens in an episode that would usually happen across several in other series. It's almost refreshing to see so many big reveals and twists in only just the first couple episodes. Even though, there's still a lot left to unpack and the series isn't horrible so I'll keep watching. It's not the best show around but it knows what's it's trying to be and I like it for that, doesn't bite off more than it can chew.

I really loved this show. I love the mystery, the comedy and the chemistry between the characters. It does a perfect job at balancing comedy, thriller, drama and romance at the same time.

I definitely enjoyed this more than most comedy series out there. The comedy is very well written and doesn't even fail to give atlest a small chuckle while maintaining a good engaging story that keeps you on your toes.

It's definitely such a shame there is no season 2 yet, because this show most definitely should have more than 3 seasons by now because how good it is. Plus, with the way that the first season ended, this show definitely needs a second season.
