It's a concept with potential but its execution is just awful. Will Arnett sounds like a tween trying to speak like an adult as grisled detective Terry Seattle. Seriously, he's trying to channel Wilfred Brimley, Sam Elliott, and Kevin Costner all at once but it's a big fail. Haneefah Wood as ex-wife Chief Rhonda Seattle is obviously channelling Niecy Nash, and what a bold move Netflix to show us yet another mixed race couple, that's just soooo progressive of you, wow. And his vaunted guest stars just phone in their tepid performances, it's cringe-watch tv. No way this gets a second season, even though it costs nothing to produce. Expand

Each week, he's gets a case with a new assistant. The catch is, everyone's in on the script EXCEPT the guests and they have to fake their way thru the investigation. Arnett has created his character as a cocky, over-the-top loser and if you like his style, that's half the battle. Then come the stars: Conan OBrian and Sharon Stone were the standouts, not only because they managed to keep up with the wacky proceedings, but they didn't break character to laugh at the craziness. Even though the others were more amused (Ken Jeong, Marshawn Lynch, Kumail Nanjani and Annie Murphy), they all had moments to shine. Each episode is short and moves spritely, so it's easy, entertaining silliness. (Six 30-minute episodes) Expand

Smart! Brilliant! Unconventional! Breaking the directorial rules and norms is always acceptable if it’s put in a respectable manner.

Each episode sees eccentric detective Terry Seattle (Will Arnett) team up with a celebrity guest to investigate a murder. The twist? The celebrity guest has no script and must improvise their way through everything that's thrown at them.Each episode sees eccentric detective Terry Seattle (Will Arnett) team up with a celebrity guest to investigate a murder.

Some episodes work better than others, but overall Murderville provides plenty of laughs, quite often for the cast as well as the viewer!

Murderville comes to show you once again that COVID-19 has badly impacted the film industry. Bad acting, a horrible plot which makes no sense on top of dry, horrible jokes makes this series a horrifying watch.
