On this episode of Good Pop, we check out Amazon Prime's new series Mr. & Mrs. Smith, a re-imagining of the 2005 film and the 1996 series, starring Maya Erskine and Donald Glover as two secret agents for hire who are paired up by an agency that matches up couples for special ops assignments. The show is part spy procedural, and part millennial romantic drama, and definitely not what we expected, but does it make the grade as good pop?

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR

"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
