After Sam Swift, the former star of a hit cop series, has an epic breakdown that is broadcast to the public and sends her to rehab, she finds herself stalled professionally. Desperate to restart her career, she talks her way into shadowing lone-wolf private investigator Eddie Valetik as research for a potential comeback role. Though Eddie resents what he views as a baby-sitting gig, high-spirited Sam uses the skills she learned as an actor playing a cop and proves herself to be surprisingly valuable.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

While Take Two is more entertaining than expected -- with a desirable chemistry between the stars -- the writing is too shaky to break its cookie-cutter mold.

Like every other show on TV, the last episode puts one of the main character in a position that you know wont last since he is one of the 2 stars of the show. What lazy writing, this plot has been done to death and like the plot this show should now dye, dont get me wrong good show good characters but he lazy writing this early in the run does not bode well for the long run. See more Sep 21, 2018 I can’t wait for season 2 to come out !! See more Sep 20, 2018 Not much chemistry between main characters. Not very well acted or written. See more Read all reviews
