Michael Schur was inspired to create "A Man On the Inside" after watching Chilean documentary "The Mole Agent"
Story
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?.
This show hits that goal undeniably well
I believe many pieces of fiction naturally have a goal to make you think something along the lines of "It was an honor to share in the lives of these fictional characters".
Even those coming for the mystery, which granted it focus less on, should be captivated by the humanity that is carried out not only in the writing but in the performance of all cast members
Props to all departments involved.Although Netflix has been tough on series renewals lately, I hope they fulfill this shows potention in granting them a season 2 as I hope to see more of these incredible characters' journeys.
