Cris Cole

A group of guys travel to Belize to see an old friend, when things take an unexpectedly dark turn.

Mad Dogs

Dark, manic, violent..and fun.

Yes, cringe you will. A lot. Think &apos;Weekend at Bernie&apos;s&apos; only darker, much darker! But it&apos;s a small price to pay for this roller coaster fun ride, a remake of Cris Cole&apos;s show from 2011 with the same name.

Only this time around we&apos;re in Puerto Rico (not Mallorca) and by that I mean &apos;Belize&apos; of course. Regardless, the setting is gorgeous. A welcome escape into a perfect world that unravels into madness a short while into the pilot. Thanks to a solid cast, perfectly mismatched to never solve a single situation with good common sense, you&apos;ll follow their downhill adventure - which will make you either yell at the screen in frustration, or laugh out loud - depending on how you watch a show like this: as drama with a sense of humor, or pure comedy.

The predecessor of this show is still going strong at the time of this little review, so we can safely assume that there is enough madness in the book to keep this brilliant set of characters busy for a few more seasons.

Better than expected with interesting and unpredictable story lines - another strong show in Amazon&apos;s line-up.
