‘Truth Seekers’: Nick Frost & Simon Pegg Can’t Find A Way To Make Their Supernatural Amazon Series Entertaining [Review]
A reunion of Nick Frost and Simon Pegg—stars of the beloved comedy hybrids “Shaun of the Dead,” “Hot Fuzz,” and “The World’s End”—should produce abundant joy, especially given the promising concept of Amazon’s “Truth Seekers” to once again blend humor with another genre.
