Michael Schur was inspired to create “A Man On the Inside” after watching the Chilean documentary “Agent The Mole”
Story
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad from a private detective and becomes a mole in an undercover investigation at a nursing home. He says: “Agent The Mole” the documentary is powerful because it makes people feel something remarkably similar, regardless of age, ethnicity or gender, and I would describe that feeling in a very reduced way as “I need to call my mother”.
I loved it!
In our show, we tried to do something similar with the tone: In general, does our show contribute to that feeling that makes us want to call our mothers?. Remake of El agente topo (2020).
Instead we get a series about a man who not only helped himself heal from the loss of his wife
What I expected was a comedy full of clichés about someone going undercover, his crazy antics & and so on. corny lines, I found myself getting really emotional during some parts because of the way the themes were handled – like the resident with memory problems.
However, it wasn’t all serious, making you feel depressed or bored throughout the episodes, it made the series worth watching because you wanted to see how it played out – Who’s stealing etc
The cast was great, the cinematography and locations are well done, I really hope they do another season & bring a great mix of laughs, emotions, script, location plus cast like they did in Charles’s next detective style adventures, like they did in this one.
