Cheers and The Good Place alum Ted Danson is in top form in this poignant eight-episode comedy as Charles, a widowed professor who’s adrift until he answers an ad from a private eye (the wry Lilah Richcreek Estrada) looking for someone to go undercover at a posh San Francisco retirement home and expose a jewel thief. The mystery angle takes a back seat to poignant comedy as Charles becomes attached to his new acquaintances, a who’s who of seasoned character actors including Sally Struthers, Margaret Avery, Stephen McKinley Henderson, L.A. Law’s Susan Ruttan, John Getz, and Lori Tan Chinn. As Didi, the facility’s warmly efficient and overwhelmed administrator, Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s Stephanie Beatriz oversees these golden girls and guys with compassion, and while she suspects something’s up with Charles’s cover story, she (and we) can’t help but succumb to his charms.
