Take Two

2018 · 1 season

A breezy, bantering case-of-the-week romp where Hollywood glamour collides with grubby detective work, easy to dip into and forget.

Overview: Sam Swift, the former star of a hit cop series whose epic breakdown is broadcast to the public and sends her to rehab. Desperate to restart her career, she talks her way into shadowing lone-wolf private investigator Eddie Valetik as research for a potential comeback role. Though Eddie resents the babysitting gig, high-spirited Sam uses the skills she learned as an actor playing a cop and proves herself to be surprisingly valuable.
How it feels: Light, whimsical, earnest and satirical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Identity, celebrity, crime, redemption
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
