The story kicks off during a luxurious family vacation in Greece, where the Tanners hire Adam to tutor their friends’ children. From there, his manipulative scheme unfolds as he sows discord, turning the family against one another and orchestrating events that could lead to their downfall—especially Jamie’s.
The series also stars Carice van Houten (Black Book), Christine Adams (Batman Begins) and Raza Jaffrey (Homeland), rounding out a strong cast.
All six episodes dropped on Prime Video on November 14 and honestly, I’m a little surprised it took a week for this show to appear on my radar. While it hasn’t exactly been overwhelmed with hype, it also isn’t drowning in “do not watch” reviews.
Critics were mixed. But viewers on Rotten Tomatoes are singing a different tune.
“Totally addictive, fantastic music and performance really absorbed me. Very gripping,” one commenter raved. Another said it’s a show that “gets better & better as it goes on.”
