The Good Place star Ted Danson’s new Netflix comedy reveals first look


The initial images for Ted Danson’s debut Netflix series, titled “A Man on the Inside“, have been unveiled in their first showing.

As a longtime fan of both “The Good Place” and “Parks and Recreation,” I was beyond excited to hear that my favorite actor would be reuniting with Mike Schur, a mastermind behind some of my favorite comedies. Having grown up watching Schur’s shows, I can attest to the unique blend of humor and heart that he brings to his work, which always leaves me laughing and feeling uplifted. Knowing that this collaboration is happening fills me with joy and anticipation for what they will create together. It reminds me of how powerful it can be when talented creators come together to produce something special, and I can’t wait to see the magic that will unfold on screen.

As a gamer, I jump into the narrative where my character, Danson’s charming Charles, replies to a classified posted by a sneaky detective. Turns out, I’m undercover in a senior living facility, working covertly as a resident.

In the recently unveiled images, you can spot Charles emerging from an elevator, talking into a recording device, and enjoying a conversation over a glass of wine while attending an art lesson.

In the photographs, we see other characters such as Mary Elizabeth Ellis portraying Charles’ daughter Emily, Stephanie Beatriz in the role of retirement home director Didi, and Stephen McKinley Henderson playing the part of community member Calbert.

The summary for the movie titled “A Man on the Inside” goes like this: A widowed individual, seeking a change in his monotonous life, decides to respond to an advertisement requesting a private detective to unravel a puzzling burglary case.

Under an assumed identity as a recent retiree, he immerses himself deeply within a retirement home, forging beautiful new relationships and strengthening his bond with his daughter in the process.

In reality, the series is inspired by a true-life incident, and it’s depicted in a critically acclaimed Chilean documentary named “The Mole Agent.”

In a fierce competition against Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV+, Netflix emerged victorious, winning the privilege to transform the tale into a comedic production.

One well-known production credited to Schur is the American adaptation of “The Office,” which, interestingly, he initially considered a bad idea when first proposed in 2022. However, it’s worth noting that his perspective changed over time.

Beginning in November, a captivating series titled “A Man on the Inside” will debut on Netflix. Currently, all four seasons of the heartwarming show “A Good Place” are available for streaming on Netflix in both the United States and the United Kingdom.
