Murderville Plot

A team of 8 writers worked on this show. They all sat down and discussed the mysteries in detail. Of course, the primary decisions were who would be the victim, murderer, suspects, and guest celebrities. No wonder why Arnett was so excited for the project. In his words: “I’d love to do more if it works and people respond to it. And if people kind of shrug and go, ‘Yeah, fine,’ then great, we had a lot of fun.”

So, all those who are concerned about the future of the franchise. Well, we might get a second season as well! However, it solely depends on how well the first 6 episodes do on the streaming site.

The official synopsis for Murderville is:

A California Christmas 3 Release Date Updates, Cast, Synopsis, And More

“Meet Senior Detective Terry Seattle (Arnett), Homicide Division. Every day means a new murder case and a new celebrity guest star as his partner for Terry. But here’s the catch: each episode’s guest star isn’t being given the script. They have no idea what’s about to happen to them. Together, the guest star and Terry Seattle will have to improvise their way through the case… but it will be up to each celebrity guest alone to name the killer.”

For Terry (Arnett), every day is a new opportunity to use his spectacular skills and solve a new case. But in this mission, he always needs an assistant. It is where our guest celebrities come into use! But the twist is that none of these celebrities is provided with a script. They have to come up with their dialogues to keep the conversation going. Some have even claimed this show to be a test of actors’ “improvisation skills”. And well, they are not wrong!

Throughout the episode, Arnett finds clues and connects the dots. At the end of the episode, the guest celebrity will get the chance to announce the killer’s name. The plot seems very promising, and we can surely not wait for Murderville to premiere on Netflix on 3rd February!
