American actress Shelley Hennig discusses her role in the new Netflix series Obliterated, her experiences with intimacy coordinators and sex scenes, her love for country music, and working alongside co-stars C.

Netflix's new series "Obliterated," from the creators of "Cobra Kai," is a consistently amusing '90s action-comedy pastiche. The show follows an elite multi-agency strike force who, after securing a decoy bomb, celebrate with a wild party, only to realize that a real bomb is still set to obliterate Las Vegas. The fate of the city rests on a team of drunk, high, and tripping action heroes. While the premise is great, the show's eight-episode format feels stretched, with running jokes and fights that drag on. Despite this, the ensemble cast delivers fun performances, and the show captures the spirit of '80s and '90s low-brow blockbusters.
