The Wrong Missy

The Wrong Missy is currently streaming in Australia on Netflix, and in the US on Netflix, and it delivers exactly the kind of comedy that earns a loyal following. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. A 6/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. David Spade sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. Put it on tonight on Netflix and see for yourself.

The Wrong Missy is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate The Wrong Missy from the crowd. A guy meets the woman of his dreams and invites her to his company's corporate retreat, but realizes he sent the invite to the wrong person. David Spade and Lauren Lapkus lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2020. The Wrong Missy earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, The Wrong Missy is a strong candidate. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. The complete film is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. David Spade anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.
