Remake of El agente topo (2020)
Scenario
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad for a private investigator and becomes a mole in an undercover investigation at a nursing home. Michael Schur was inspired to create “A Man On the Inside” after watching the Chilean documentary “Agent Mole.” He says, “Agent Mole” is a powerful documentary because it makes people feel incredibly similar regardless of age, ethnicity, or gender, and I would describe that feeling in a very reduced way as “I have to call my mom.” We tried to do a similar thing with our show with the tone: Basically, does our show contribute to that feeling that makes us call our mothers?
Ted Danson is brilliant as usual
As I write this, I’m currently on episode 5. This series is entertaining, thought-provoking, and honestly a treat.
Each of us, regardless of age, brings something new to the table
The rest of the cast is engaging and captivating in this Who Made It," series. I’m equally committed to the criminal aspect as to the human aspect of loneliness.
I feel the warmth of the message without all the joy
The comedy is beautifully woven into the fact that the laughter is genuine. I hope this show continues on the path that I really enjoy.
