I've enjoyed Bad Monkey well enough. When I saw the thread I was thinking it might mean the second season was approaching but no, not quite there. It looks like they may be filming though and to save some money they'll do a lot of filming in California. Exteriors - Florida, a lot of interiors - California. I read there'll be budget cuts for all returning shows with the possible exception of Severance. (personally, I dropped Severance at some point. It lost any relevance for me and I could no longer enjoy or entertain it).

Which ‘Bad Monkey’ Stars Are — And Aren’t — Returning for Season 2 After Story Overhaul?

The gal from The Handmaid’s Tale (which I also dropped after a ways for the same reason) will play an attorney in season 2 of Bad Monkey.

Considering picking it up.
Its entertaining enough imho and as there isn't much in my watchlist at the moment I am watching it. Later on when there is a lot to watch then I would probably drop it. 5/10 for me.
In ep3 now, and I'm considering dropping it. It does a lot of things right, but the storyline development is just too slow and uninteresting. The constant narrator thing is also a bit over the top, borderline annoying. Usually I like this kind of storytelling, but with Bad Monkey... it is overused. So, I agree 5/10 for me. Not enough to keep my interest. Maybe at some point a binge the season on my next long haul.

I dont watch shows very long that I give a 5/10 rating to. Its rare that I watch a show all the way through that I rate 6/10 even.

The narrator ruins this one for me. They're just narrating the things you should be picking up from the scene already, it doesn't provide anything of value, and just feels intrusive to the experience.

I'll give it a 7/10 as it's quirky and has some neat characters. 1 ep a week is a good way to watch it, rather than a binge. IMHO.

I just finished ep 02 and I think it's ridiculous, over the top, corny, and pays tribute to a lot of different PI shows from the past. So far I'm really enjoying it. I hope it does as well as the book series it's based on.

Halfway through. It lost some of it's charm but still decent enough to see it through.
The story got a bit boring after EP04. Sure there are still some mysteries left, but nothing you couldn't figure out for yourself.

However, I would call this show more character-driven than story-driven. And the characters are still top-notch.

I'm enjoying it, it's easy to watch and sometimes you need something you don't have to think about too much.

I watched a couple episodes earlier. It's entertaining enough.

When a severed arm is found by a tourist out fishing, Andrew Yancy - a one-time detective demoted to restaurant inspector in Southern Florida - is pulled into a world of greed and corruption that decimates the land and environment in both Florida and the Bahamas.

First episode looks very promising.
Good premise, well written characters and decent set-up.

Vince Vaughn plays his usual character which is very fitting for this type of crime-drama with a tendency towards the comic relief.

Love shows with some good narration.
