Starz’s ‘The Couple Next Door’ Is an Absurd Yet Sexy Thrill: TV Review


In Starz's new drama series, ‘The Couple Next Door’ Sam Heughan stars as one half of a couple who find themselves entagled with their new neighbors.

Still, they don’t expect to establish a friendship with their neighbors, Danny (“Outlander” star Sam Heughan) and Becka (a particularly good Jessica De Gouw), to forever alter their relationship and their lives. Friendly and energetic yoga instructor/influencer Becka immediately offers her policeman husband Danny’s services when she sees Pete struggling to unload a moving truck. Instead of the cop drama narrative, this diversion might be richer had it focused on the roots of Alan’s infatuation, his marriage with his long-suffering wife Jane (Kate Robbins) and why this entire suburban community seems nearly void of feminist and progressive women.
