This is peak summer viewing — wild, witty, and just the right kind of ridiculous.
It’s part mystery, part tropical vacation, part “wtf is even going on” — but all of it works, and somehow it works really well. Vince Vaughn is in top form here, chewing through every scene like it’s his last meal. He carries the show with that classic mix of snark, charm, and barely-contained chaos.
And then there’s Natalie Martinez — who’s electric. She’s absolutely stunning, but more than that, she brings this warm, grounded energy that makes their banter feel like a throwback to those early 2000s rom-coms I miss. There’s a flirty tension, a rhythm, a kind of magic that TV rarely captures anymore.
The real surprise, though? Everyone in this show brings something to the table. Every character is their own quirky flavor of weird — unpredictable, slightly broken, but fully alive.
P.S. Michelle Monaghan as a sociopathic pedophile? Did not have that on my bingo card. Wild. Unsettling. And kind of brilliant.
