Netflix released on Thursday (the 9th) the series Epic Fails, which follows the lives of two brothers who, trying to solve a tight financial situation, end up getting involved with organized crime. Created by Dan Levy — known for his work in comedies — the production mixes family everyday life with the underworld of illegality, showing how impulsive decisions can generate unexpected consequences.
The plot revolves around Nicky (played by Dan Levy) and Morgan (Taylor Ortega), who look for a quick solution to help their grandmother. What starts as an apparently simple plan turns into a botched robbery, putting the brothers under pressure from a criminal group that does not accept retreats. With no way out, they are forced to collaborate in illicit activities while trying to understand the magnitude of the problem they created. Each choice paves the way for new obstacles, heightening the tension and humor of the series.
Beyond the crime storyline, Epic Fails deepens the relationship between Nicky and Morgan, exploring their differences and the need for mutual support in the face of emerging threats. The season follows a continuous format, where each roughly 30‑minute episode develops the ramifications of previous decisions, balancing moments of suspense with everyday situations.
The series is already available in Netflix’s catalog, ready for those who enjoy comedies blended with criminal thriller.
