Nicole Kidman was right. Saw in interview that it was amazing how the cinematographer captured the sights/sounds/feel of NYC

IMHO. Most of the acting was hideously bad. Especially Hugh Grant (grimaced 24/7) and Nicole Kidman. Victims husband, Hugh's lawyer, and lead detective close 3rd and 4th & 5th worse. Best actor - Kidman's son and best friend.

Or maybe it was just a bad script too? The writer tried something different and didn't know quite how to pull it off. Typically there's the main person everyone thinks committed a crime ( except we know they didn't because they never do). So other suspects reveal in tiny bits why they could be the one The Undoing was the opposite - other suspects who never slowly revealed anything.
Very unsatisfying show to me. 2.5/5
