Michael Schur was inspired to create "A Man On the Inside" after watching Chilean documentary "The Mole Agent"
Synopsis
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad from a private investigator and becomes a mole in a secret investigation in a nursing home.. He says: "The Mole Agent" documentary is powerful because it makes people feel something remarkably similar across any age, ethnicity or gender, and I'd describe that feeling in a very reductive way as, "I've got to call my mom." In our show, we tried to do a similar thing with the tone: Basically, does our show contribute to that feeling of making us want to call our moms?.
I love Ted Danson!
Remake of The Mole Agent (2020). And he portrayed a very good Widower stuck in a mourning routine after the loss of his wife.
It is also hilarious and goofy in typical Danson fashion
The show is heart warming and portrays the needed companionship of both family and friends as you age especially after the loss of a loved one. It's an easy watch and easy laugh with its touching moments and I look forward to a second season!
And it doesn't hurt having a great cast!
It starts off quick and easy to get into and easy to watch all 8 episodes. I recommend it to anyone who likes goofy comedies but wants something to feel good about as well.
