"No Good Deed" is a funny, poignant tour of the stress and despair that comes with house shopping

A central draw of “No Good Deed” is its curb appeal. Feldman says in a Netflix promotional video that her search for a house inspired “No Good Deed,” but the jockeying between couples who want it for themselves either to create their own family memories or for the status feels relatable. Lisa Kudrow, Abbi Jacobson and Poppy Liu in "No Good Deed" Matt Rogers’ over-the-top agent Greg, by the way, might be this show’s not-so-hidden gem of a special feature, combining flamboyant, mercenary Angeleno excess with sharklike effectiveness and an over-affection for tasteless puns. Other details “No Good Deed” really gets right are how emotionally predatory house shopping can be, along with the way real estate is a layered wealth indicator. Aesthetic distractions notwithstanding, “No Good Deed” succeeds as both an aspirational open house and a thoughtful gaze inside the emotional walls of a home, especially the memories, funny and forlorn, that hold everything in place.
