Michael Schur was inspired to create "A Man On the Inside" after watching the Chilean documentary "The Mole Agent"
Narrative
Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad for a private investigator and becomes a mole in an undercover investigation at a nursing home. He says, "The Mole Agent" is a powerful documentary because it makes people feel incredibly similar regardless of age, ethnicity, or gender, and I would describe that feeling in a very reduced way as, «I have to call my mom.»" In our show, we tried to do a similar thing with the tone: Basically, does our show contribute to that feeling of wanting to call moms?.
Remake of El agente topo (2020)
Since we’re being honest, I’ll admit at first glance, I wasn’t sure the show was something I would be even remotely interested in, but somehow it managed to lure me in. Before you know it, you find yourself so invested that you just have to know who it is!
All the characters are extremely easy to love and so relatable to the person in your life
It’s also a gentle reminder that we’re all here trying to do the same thing, live & enjoy life, so we might as well do our best to get along, and especially to be kind to each other. My favorite quote from the show is "Every great thing in your life, when you look back on it, seems like a miracle." Very poetic because it resonates with all of us.
It’s a nice change of pace, leaving no guilt for enjoying yet another "crime" show
I will also admit that it was a little strange to see Ted Danson in that role, especially when you’re used to him as the Cheers character "Sam"; but very early on "Charles" tugs at your heartstrings without leaving sad reminders of "Sam." A bittersweet yet gentle reminder that Father Time doesn’t play favorites. I hope you watch it and recognize & empathize with the everyday challenges that some in our society, in our lives, live every day.
