Based on the Chilean documentary El Agente Topo

Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers a private investigator ad and becomes a mole in a nursing home for an undercover investigation. A remake of the 2020 film The Mole Agent.

Before you know it, you’ll be so hooked that you just have to know who!

Because let’s be honest, I’ll admit at first glance that I wasn’t really sure I was going to be interested in this show, but somehow it hooked me. All the characters are so easy to love and so relatable to the person in your life.

My favorite quote from the show is “Every great thing in your life, when you look at it, seems like a miracle” Very poetic because it resonates with all of us

It’s also a gentle reminder that we’re all here trying to do the same thing – live & enjoy life, so we might as well do our best to get along and, most importantly, be kind to each other. I will also admit that it was a bit strange to see Ted Danson in this role, especially since you are used to him as the Cheers character “Sam”; but very early on "Charles" tugs at your heartstrings, leaving sad reminders of "Sammy." A bittersweet yet gentle reminder that Father Time doesn’t play favorites.

It’s a great change of pace that doesn’t leave you feeling guilty for enjoying a new “crime”

I hope you watch and recognize & empathize with the everyday challenges that some of us in society face, that we live with every day. show.
