Mr. and Mrs. Smith was one of the best TV shows of 2024, and one of my favorite things I watched on the small screen. Arriving on Prime Video back in February, it was the perfect binge-watch – mystery, action, and romance, coupled with great pacing, made for a compulsive viewing experience.
Inspired by the 2005 movie of the same name (starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), Donald Glover and Maya Erskine played 'John' and 'Jane' Smith, two spies who join an agency that pairs up recruits and assigns them a fake spouse, along with a generic alias, to live with undercover. As the pair begin to fall for each other for real in between increasingly dangerous missions though, they realize that it doesn't pay to mix work and pleasure. And that's before the duo realize they're not the only John and Jane in town, either.
