A very funny story of a widower who doesn't really know what to do with his life and then, via a newspaper advertisement, goes undercover for a private detective in a nursing home. A piece of jewelry has disappeared there and the son of the person who was robbed wants to see it solved. And Charles is the man who has to do that.
Ted Danson plays Charles Nieuwedyk, the Man on the Inside. And he does it with verve. He has lost none of his comedic timing. But to praise him alone is to discredit the rest of the cast. Each and every one of them also delivers a very good performance and brings wonderful characters to life.
Despite the occasional heavy subject matter, such as the death of a beloved character, the worsening dementia of others, and the sometimes difficult relationships within family, this series maintains an optimistic, fun tone with the occasional appropriate drama.
During the season you started to empathize with the residents of the nursing home. There seems to be a good chance of a second season although this has not yet been announced. There is a hook in the last episode, but the question is whether that will take place in the same place. If not, then we have to invest in a lot of new characters again. But if that goes as easily as in this season, then that will be fine.
