All the rocking musical cues in the world can’t save No Good Deed from its own humorless wackiness. Liz Feldman’s follow-up to Dead to Me is an ensemble effort that believes it’s a dark comedy because it’s about sinister secrets and lies and features lots of ostensibly funny people acting frazzled and freaked-out.

That’s the premise of Netflix’s No Good Deed, an eight-part series that is billed as a comedy and boasts the 1990s sitcom nostalgia combo of Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow. As it turns out, the show is more of an uneven hybrid of suburban whodunnit and semi-sincere relationship drama.
