Though we aren’t the biggest fan of breaking the fourth wall, we do appreciate it when it adds something to the story. With Fakes, it may add something, jury is still out.
The upcoming show on Netflix is about, “FAKES is the story of two best friends who accidentally build one of the largest fake ID empires in North America. They move into a downtown penthouse, have more cash than they know what to do with, and then get raided by the feds. One of them goes to jail, the other doesn’t. This is the story of their ultimate betrayal, told through each of their POVs with regular fourth wall breaks. This is a comedy drama with two unreliable narrators who are both competing for the last word.”
