The show

Best friends Debbie and Judith are forced on the run when Debbie discovers Judith isn't a forensic accountant, she's an international assassin! With a mysterious figure chasing them, and Debbie's husband involved in something deeply corrupt, it's a race against time and a road trip across Europe to untangle the truth and stay alive.

The Real Review

People are loving this show, and it's almost entirely thanks to Hannah Waddingham and Octavia Spencer. As the assassin Judith and the bewildered Debbie, their chemistry and comedic timing are the engine of the whole thing, turning what could be a silly premise into a genuinely fun ride. The story itself gets mixed marks, feeling a bit predictable for some, but the sheer fun of the performances and the sharp humor easily carry it. Just don't expect a tightly plotted thriller; this is a buddy comedy first, with a European road trip and a corrupt husband as the backdrop.
