Emmy-winning stars Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano, celebrated for their roles in two iconic sitcoms from the late 1990s and early 2000s, are set to join forces in a new Netflix series, “No Good Deed.” The eight-episode dark comedy, created by Liz Feldman of “Dead To Me” fame, promises a captivating storyline that brings together the comedic prowess of these television legends.
“No Good Deed” revolves around three diverse families in fierce competition to acquire a 1920s Spanish-style property, each convinced that it holds the solution to their myriad problems. However, as the sellers have learned, what appears to be an ideal home can sometimes turn into a nightmarish experience.
In this upcoming series, Lisa Kudrow will take on the role of Lydia Morgan, a former concert pianist with exceptional talent coupled with significant anxiety. Lydia is portrayed as a loving yet imperfect mother to her two children and a devoted wife to Paul, played by Romano. The storyline revolves around the emotional upheaval Lydia experiences when faced with the prospect of selling their Los Feliz house, a residence teeming with both dark secrets and cherished memories.
Kudrow, best known for her Emmy-winning portrayal of Phoebe Buffay on “Friends,” brings her remarkable talent to “No Good Deed.” Her recent involvement in “Friends: The Reunion” for Max and a total of 15 Emmy nominations throughout her career underscore her enduring impact on the television landscape.
Looking beyond her upcoming Netflix project, Kudrow is making waves with her involvement in Apple TV+’s series adaptation of Terry Gilliam’s “Time Bandits,” where she serves as a co-writer, director, and executive producer. Additionally, she is set to star alongside Brian Cox and Edie Falco in the horror-comedy “The Parenting” for Max.
As fans eagerly anticipate the reunion of these two beloved stars in “No Good Deed,” the series promises to deliver a blend of humor, drama, and the undeniable chemistry that has made Kudrow and Romano enduring favorites in the world of television. Stay tuned for this exciting collaboration set to grace our screens on Netflix.
