The ‘Burbs is a fun mystery led dark humor comedy that isn't hindered by the weight of its inspiration. All it does is take the name and add a few nice little Easter Eggs to deepen the lore but its the mystery led and comedy second approach that brings The ‘Burbs to its success. Even when it feels things are rushed, it adds to both the comedic and mysterious elements that will only grow in strength if Peacock decides to give a second season. 

With its captivating first five episodes that will leave viewers wanting more, Palm Royale had a lot of potential. Sadly, the writing in the later episodes deteriorates and the plots almost seem ridiculous. Some characters aren't used as much in the latter half of the season, and the abrupt conclusion will only make you frustrated that a lot of time was wasted on plots that didn’t go anywhere.
