Could Peacock’s new series “The Resort” to be your next streaming obsession? A murder mystery, an exotic locale, and a very cool cast—hey, William Jackson Harper!—make the argument that it should be!
co-writer Andy Siara, and hints of the trippy Hulu rom-com lurk in every suite of the new series. Replace carefree Andy Samberg with a jittery William Jackson Harper, and that cavernous time portal with a murder at an abandoned resort, and you’ve got this new show. The first three episodes are already on Peacock, with more coming weekly on Thursdays. In other words, here’s your next great summer binge.
In the series, Emma and Noah are a couple trying to revive their relationship by taking a trip to the Mayan Riviera. By the back half of the first episode, they stumble on a different way to revive the spark. No couples therapy needed. They’ll solve a decades old disappearance case instead. Relationship goals!
Emma finds a missing Motorola Razr belonging to Sam , who disappeared from a different resort nearly 15 years ago. Perusing through deleted messages and photographic evidence on the phone, Emma and Noah make a big detour on the trip, heading to the now-defunct resort where Sam and his new lover, Violet , went missing.is the menacing-yet-luxurious aesthetic of the abandoned hotel. There is something so alluring about a deserted, possibly haunted hotel.
The show’s central relationships—Noah and Emma; Sam and Violet—also kept me hooked. After 10 years together, things are stale between Noah and Emma. Nothing’s wrong, but nothing’s really, either. They love each other, but they don’t really like each other, and they’re far too tired to part ways and start dating all over again. We see less of Sam and Violet, though their fresh, youthful spirit is a great contrast to the other pair.
, Siara proves that he has a knack for drafting romance arcs void of any boring clichés. And he once again found a way for Milioti to show off her star power. The actress is a fiery ball of boredom and intrigue in both mind-bending saga.
