What's with the poor rating? Should be at least 8+


Are you kidding me? This show is such fun light hearted comedy. Imo one of the best that has come out in years. A rating of 6 is ridiculous.

I completely agree. This is one of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

It's a bit on the crude or simple side, almost tending towards slapstick. It can be good but it's not great...

That's purely an opinion... But everyone's entitled to their wrong opinions.

Okay. You find it a bit crude or simple. What shows do you consider finished and complex? And what's wrong with slapstick? Are you one of those hoity toity types that need some imagined "depth" to their shows?

Counter-point: The interaction between the "Mr. & Mrs. Murder" is fun and complex and represents not only an interesting marriage between interesting people, but also works in their roles as amateur and accidental detectives. They're cute. It's not American action or artificially "high-brow", but is closer to the reality that could be found in that kind of situation by people with those personalities.

And the way they constantly drag their niece into it is hilarious...

I agree. I love it. The humor is quick and smart. Plus, they insert some random enigma/absurdity. I'm really bummed it was cancelled. It's my favorite new find.
