"Mr. & Mrs. Smith"
Listen now
Description
Our first television episode in a while and the first of 2024, we're reviewing the new Amazon Prime Video series from creators Donald Glover and Francesca Sloane: Mr. & Mrs. Smith. A reimagining of the 2005 hit movie (and a short-lived 1996 television show), the series follow John (Donald Glover) and Jane (Maya Erskine), two spies who agree to complete espionage missions under the cover of marriage. Is the new Mr. & Mrs. Smith another tepid remake, or does it forge a new - more interesting - path?
