The Wrong Mans (2013–2014)
7/10
More like the Right Idiots
12 November 2013
Warning: Spoilers
An amusing idea that has its moments. After a party, Sam (Mathew Bayton) goes for a walk and is almost run over by a car, but the car flips over and Sam calls the police as an ambulance is needed. As the police leave, Sam hears a phone ring and picks it up to hear if the money isn't delivered then we will kill your wife. Sam is conned by an associate at work, Phil (James Corden), into accepting the idea that they shouldn't tell the police but be heroes and save the wife. It would be a stretch if these two could safely help an old woman across the street. And there you have the premise of the show. Thus what might be a serious drama becomes a comedy as the two idiots bumble and bounce from one impossible situation to another. There are certainly some laughs along the way and the leads work well together so it's worth a watch. Currently on Hulu.
