'Murder in Successville', an interesting, original idea, to take a new "celebrity" each week and throw them into a staged murder mystery as a police detective. The show has a very quirky, odd, sense of humor, I felt being similarly to that of 'The Mighty Boosh' with both having the confusing yet intriguing jokes that leave you giggling, either because of the sheer stupidity of the situation/line or the hidden truth and intelligence behind the joke as it is and the uncomfortable cringing.

The show felt to me slow at first as the first episode seemed a little off despite having that charm I so much enjoyed later on but as episode two rolled around I thought why not give it a try and it had me genuinely laughing at the jokes and left me wanting more as the credits rolled.

One complaint I can see people having is the use of lesser known "celebrities" as the show calls them. This doesn't bother me and actually makes me more interested in the show, as it does have the pop culture references in the form of the characters being portrayed but without the overwhelming presence of some of the better known celebrities, as I can see those kinds of people taking the center stage to appeal to a wider audience and therefore killing lots of the charm in the show itself.

I have seen a lot of negativity surrounding this show and I have read what is being said, I'm not going to repeat criticisms but I will say this show really seems to appeal to a small group of people which is why it is hated on but I think this is a smart, funny show with a great deal of potential to be loved by many, I just think people need to open their mind a little to something different.
