Their onscreen chemistry is so strong you forget they are acting.

[@gamingandthings6386]

It’s a really REALLY good series. Binge watched the whole thing in two days.

[@manasvegi4170]

One sitting! Granted I have a problem.

[@MoonNy-kr1qy]

It wasn't that good.

[@gamingandthings6386]

@@MoonNy-kr1qy Maybe not for you but for the rest of yes, it really was.

[@MoonNy-kr1qy]

@@gamingandthings6386 Can you elaborate? What from the series did you think was executed well? I thought the whole series was mundane. There was no elevation. I think the whole plot was moved stationary and there wasn't much climax going from one episode to the next. I really did want to enjoy the series, but I was disappointed with its execution.

[@gamingandthings6386]

@@MoonNy-kr1qy Well in short I felt the opposite of everything you said. It was fresh and gave a different perspective to a story that’s been done before. Also it was a series not a film. Unless you’re are talking about the Brad Pitt movie which I would also disagree with you completely because it was a good movie. Hope that helps you 🙂

[@MrSamPhoenix]

This series is incredible. These two have unmatched chemistry ⚛️. I hope they bring these back for a season 2 and beyond.

I'm waiting for season 2 hopefully there'll be one

[@julienielsen4462]

Watched all 8 episodes on the weekend love it. I’m hoping they get a season 2 or get more episodes.

[@globalSentry]

Just finished watching all of it in one go. The show is extremely engaging. It is not cheesy at all. I have not seen a spy movie done this way. I Usually loose interest after romance of the leads but it did not happen. Very well written. Although Donald's voice was so low at times, i had to replay.

[@mandyisdandy101]

Two incredibly talented people! Excited for the show!

[@clintgriffith2120]

I watched the series on Prime yesterday and really enjoyed it. Great acting from both actors!

[@brittsavage7982]

Outstanding performances

[@bluecollarmenproductions]

They were incredible

[@TheDTVOfficial]

Can't wait for season 2!

[@tahntalus]

you think there will be? interesting...

[@lHurtYourFeeIings]

I never thought I'd think black man and Asian woman have chemistry on film, and they nailed it. 10/10 for me. Very rewatchable.

[@AudieKush710]

Absolutely fell in love with this series 😊❤

[@MsMoonorchid]

Love mr and mrs smith and love Donald and Maya! Hoping for a season 2!

[@Micsq4lv]

This was an amazing series!!! Way way way better than the movie.

[@cherzee8964]

They’re better than the original! A smarter, more realistic version for 2024

I’m happy they did this🎉

[@KemetNubian1]

How about the 90s television series, of the same name, as a closer version than the '05 movie. Totally love this current series. Praying for a 2nd season, and can definitely see a video game developed based on it 🙏🏿

[@Emeraldnite-if7vo]

Thankful they released all the eps before my fiance's Amazon Prime Video account expired. Second season, PLEEEAAAZE!!!

[@infinite_one]

[@bluecollarmenproductions]

Not really based off the movie at all except they’re spies with the same names, which I appreciated

[@camelliam.4235]

Amazing actors, they act realistically although the script was weak in many places. The only thing that bothered me is the writers stole the original name of the movie.

Wow the anchor telling him he got into dead ends. Eeeeeek.

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

"Mr. & Mrs. Smith" were NOT spies, they were competing assassins. This is a reboot of the ending of "True Lies", without the daughter.

[@chemicalhap]

No. There was a Scott bakula maria bello series before the movie

[@igorschmidlapp6987]

@@chemicalhap They are comparing it to the Brad/Angie movie, though...
