Steve Martin and Martin Short were great. Them and Selena Gomez made a likeable unlikely team. The bits where she helps her two elderly friends navigate the modern world were funny and touching, likewise for the bits where the two men try to be protective and caring of her despite not quite understanding why millenials act the way they do. Martin and Short are funny and charming and Tina Fey was great in a cameo.

But the weaknesses outweigh the strengths. The story feels like it was written by first time writers -- it has a very sophomoric feel to it. It is boring and weak. This is a mystery story but that plot is kept more or less in halt till the very end -- the middle episodes are full of extraneous and frankly boring backstories and subplots. Selena Gomez's acting was another weak point of the series.

The story needed to focus on the mystery, it needed some colorful suspects, some suspense and a lot more fun scenes of the three leads investigating together. Instead we get a lot of cliched, done-to-death subplots involving each character. There were glimpses of a hella fun show, but it got buried by the bad writing.
