Synopsis
The Shrink Next Door (2021) is a true-story drama you can watch online on iFILM, and it casts two comedy heavyweights against type. Will Ferrell plays Marty, a timid heir to a fabric business; Paul Rudd plays Ike, the therapist who walks into his life and never leaves.
Marty shows up wanting to get better at saying no. Over thirty years, Dr. Ike instead moves into his Hamptons house, throws parties on his dime, rewrites his will, and walks him away from his own family. Kathryn Hahn is the sister who keeps trying to reach him through the fog. Across eight episodes, therapy quietly curdles into a hostile takeover of one man's entire life.
Directed by Michael Showalter for Apple TV+, the series adapts Joe Nocera's investigative podcast about a real New York psychiatrist who eventually lost his license. Rudd is the reason to tune in — charming exactly enough to make your skin crawl. If Inventing Anna and stories about quiet manipulators pull you in, this one lands. Stream every episode of The Shrink Next Door online on iFILM.
