Paul Rudd’s ‘The Shrink Next Door’ is too disturbing for its own good
People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive,” but that too coincidental accolade (ya think?) bestowed just days before “The Shrink Next Door” won’t help the cause of his new Apple TV+ series.Both Rudd and the eight-episode series, premiering Friday (Nov. 12), are just too disturbing — and not in an entertaining way.Rudd plays a narcissistic, manipulative psychologist who preys on a nice-guy patient (Will Ferrell), worming his way into, and eventually taking over, all aspects of his life.
