Kate Hudson receded from the spotlight, seemingly of her own volition.

Her acting work slowed, but in recent years , she has been popping up more frequently, suggesting she is perhaps ready for a full-time return.

Running Point is resourceful in its use of Hudson ’s charms, giving her a close-to-home role and letting her flail and screwball around on nicely designed sets.

Justin Theroux brings the only flecks of anything like darkness or danger to the series.

Otherwise, Running Point merrily glides along on sturdy rails, its tart jokes delivered in bright staccato.

The show's affability could prove too cloying were it not for Hudson ’s flintiness.
