Line of Events
Charles, a retiree, gets a new lease on life when he answers a private detective’s ad and becomes a mole in a secret nursing home investigation. Based on the Chilean documentary “El Agente Topo”. Remake of The Mouse Agent (2020). I think many fictional works inherently have the goal of making you think something like, “It was an honor to be a part of the lives of these fictional characters.” This series undeniably achieves that goal well. Even those who come for the mystery, which is why the series was less of a focus, should be captivated by the humanity that comes through not only in the script but also in the performances of all the cast. Kudos to all the departments involved. Although Netflix has been tough on series renewals lately, I hope they fulfill the potential of this series by granting them a second season, as I hope to see more of the journeys of these incredible characters.
