Likeable and relatively deep characters, plausible plot, tolerable pacing are the driving forces behind this show
Stallone is good being the main protagonist, but I like Andrea Savage and her character a lot, very nice performance. I respected a lot that Stallone is not trying to look younger when his character Dwight honestly mentions his age and how it could affect his relationships with younger woman.Cinematography and music are nothing to write home about, both are good enough to help keep the show entertaining, but not really adding value and not standing out.
My review makes the show look pretty average, yet I'm rating it at 8/10 because it is a solid entertainer, not a TV/ Cinema masterpiece or tour de force
