EXCLUSIVE: Emmy-winning stars from two of the biggest sitcoms of the late 1990s and early 2000s are coming together in a new Netflix series. Friends alumna Lisa Kudrow has been tapped to star opposite Everybody Loves Raymond‘s Ray Romano in Netflix’s No Good Deed, an eight-episode dark comedy series from Dead To Me creator Liz Feldman.
Created by Feldman, No Good Deed follows three very different families vying to buy the very same 1920s Spanish style villa that they think will solve all their problems. But as the sellers have already discovered, sometimes the home of your dreams can be a total nightmare.
Kudrow will play Lydia Morgan. A highly-talented (and highly-strung) former concert pianist, Lydia is a devoted wife to Paul (Romano) and loving-though-flawed mother to their two children. She is distraught by the idea of selling their Los Feliz home, a place filled with happy memories and dark secrets.
Feldman serves as showrunner and executive produces with Will Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum for Gloria Sanchez Productions, Christie Smith as well as Silver Tree, who will direct the pilot and additional episodes. Sherry Thomas and Russell Scott oversee casting.
Kudrow won an Emmy for her signature role as Phoebe Buffay on Friends in 1998. The actor-producer has earned 15 Emmy nominations to date, most recently in the Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) category for executive producing, alongside her Friends co-stars, Friends: The Reunion for Max.
Coming up, Kudrow stars alongside Brian Cox and Edie Falco in the horror-comedy The Parenting for Max and in the series adaptation of the Terry Gilliam movie Time Bandits for Apple TV+, co-written, directed and executive produced by Taika Waititi. She is repped by CAA
