Had no idea this existed until the gf wanted something similar to Knives Out and Clue. Over the course of a few weeks we watched season 1 (very solid, worth the current review score) and season 2 (sloppy mess, feels more like a 4 star).

Season 2 review: Dont bother. The ending is almost pointless and feels like a rushed re-write when everyone realized who the REAL killer was supposed to be by episode 6. It feels obvious by the script, as well as Selena Gomez's massive weight changes throughout, that the second season went through massive reshoots, to its detriment. The only highlights are really Steve Martin and Martin Short hamming it up.

Season 1 review: Steve Martin and Martin Short are back together with the same chemistry they had in the old days. My gf, having only just having seen Three Amigos for the first time shortly before we learned about this, commented on the duo's comedy chops, which are still quite strong. Selena Gomez, unfortunately, is far more one note in all of her acting. Her speaking mannerism is this odd grumbly flatness and she rarely shows emotion or acting range and often just stands there and says her lines in her flat, monotone voice. Shes not exactly BAD, but she definitely is not good. Her lack of acting make Steve Martin and Martin Short shine by comparison. The trio stumble their way into each others otherwise secluded lives via their shared love of true crime podcasts. The story is engaging and often fun and funny, though there are also some very 'real' moments sprinkled throughout.

The first season gave us enough information to go on that you could absolutely figure out whodunit, while throwing in ample red herrings to throw you off the scent.

No such luck for the second season when it feels like the revealed killer comes out of the blue, and feels messy and disjointed.

There will inevitably be a season 3, and I hope that they have a better script than what they put us through from season 2.
