Good Behavior is TNT’s thrilling new drama where a thief/ex-con/drug
addict woman hooks up with a hitman to save his next target, but things don’t
go according to anyone’s plan.
Least we can do is to learn some fun lessons on survival, dating
and relationships in general from the show.
Most of them will be obvious to the rational person, so bear
with me. It is meant for good old fun. And let’s face it: Even if we manage to
stay clear of the several obvious, we don’t always take the rational road.
And if the tips intrigue you about the show, all the better.
You can read my Good Behavior review and plot summary here.
Enjoy!
1) Don’t run away from home before you finish high
school.
2) Don’t get addicted to drugs or alcohol.
3) If you are smart and beautiful, maybe try other
career paths than being a con artist.
You don’t have to be beautiful to be successful, but looking at least
presentable never hurt anyone. And people do tend to be more positively biased
toward to more physically attractive, which Michelle Dockery’s Letty is.
4) If you insist on being a con artist and realize
you’ve just stolen from a professional hitman, maybe don’t seduce him as a way
of saving his target.

5) If you do seduce the hitman, don’t admit you’ve
cheated him. In fact, even if you try to save his target, don’t confront him
with a shotgun.
6) If you have cheated him, maybe don’t run away
with his car and money.
7) If the hitman knows where your son lives, don’t
be an obnoxious brat until you know for sure he won’t come after you or your
kid.
8) If you owe money to a hitman, don’t screw up his
plans. You might end up being an accomplice to a second crime.
9) If you try to save someone from a bad marriage,
whose husband your love interest wants to kill, make sure they don’t have a
Tesla. Teslas are awesome, but you might want to be driving a regular car that
runs on gas if you are on a timeline with two dead bodies in the trunk.
10) Don’t cover for a lying junkie even if you are a
former junkie. If you take the blame, it will come back to bite you.
11) Don’t be afraid of human connection. But that doesn’t mean
you have to be friends with insecure, jealous people who can’t let go.
12) If you found a person who’s genuinely into you
and is after your best interest, keep them in your life – just make sure they
don’t have deadly career paths.
13) Letty knew what he was going in, but he didn't know what Letty was up to. He introduced himself as a philanthropist. So if a guy this cute, interesting and charming tells you he helps saves lives for a living, do check out him on Google and LinkedIn before falling for him.
14) And for the love of God or whatever you believe in, do learn how to type on a computer!
There you go. Watching the show? Any more tips? Let me know in the comments.
