This new TV show was set out to polarize from the start, I'm sure Donald knew it, didn't care, and that's what makes it so great. If you're looking for a straight forward script, mission impossible action sequences with one liners and the occasional farcical jokes to stir some family chuckles here and there, don't bother.
If this doesn't feel over the top, its because these two characters don't need to do that, the jokes are a little more sophisticated, observational and deadpan, its for a different crowd.You can expect some character build up and slow plot development, Donald wants you to organically relate to these characters and how they came to fall in love. Unlike the 2005 movie adaptation, they look and feel normal, they just happened to have abnormal jobs of spying on marks and killing targets.
