Dove Cameron and Avan Jogia play a couple who meet cute at a grocery store and dive immediately into a hot affair. Jump forward to “today,” where there’s a decomposing corpse in his bathtub. That’s the basic plot behind this series, jumping back and forth, as it counts the days up to the body’s discovery. Those scenes involve a cop duo trying to solve the mystery of who’s actually dead. Of course, there are shocking revelations along the way. Fortunately, the duo’s chemistry works: Cameron is slyly seductive and devious, while Jogia plays it more serious, with continually disheveled hair adding an element of entitled nonchalance. What doesn’t work is the bane of so many current series: There’s too much extra padding that slows the pace. The revelations deepen the impact, but it takes too long with no suspense to get to the final outcome.
