Michael Schur was inspired to create "A Man On the Inside" after watching Chilean documentary "The Mole Agent"
Scenario
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad from a private investigator and becomes a mole in a secret investigation in a nursing home..
Remake of El agente topo (2020)
He says: "The Mole Agent" documentary is powerful because it makes people feel something remarkably similar across any age, ethnicity or gender, and I'd describe that feeling in a very reductive way as, "I've got to call my mom." In our show, we tried to do a similar thing with the tone: Basically, does our show contribute to that feeling of making us want to call our moms?.
What I was expected was a comedy full of clichés about somebody going undercover,his crazy antics & so forthInstead we get a series about a man that not only helped others,but actually helped himself heal from losing his wifeThis great series wasn't full of cheesy laughs & corny lines,found myself actually emotional during some parts because of the way topics were handled-Like the resident with memory issuesHowever it wasn't all serious that made you feel down or bored getting through episodes,it kept the series watch worthy because you wanted to see how it played out-Who did the stealing,etcThe casting to acting was great,cinematography & locations nicely doneI really hope they do another season & bring a great mixture of laughs,emotions,script,location plus cast like they did on Charles next detective styled adventures as they did on this one
Loved it!
