The trailer for the new Netflix comedy show Murderville features Will Arnett, Conan O'Brien, and more solving crimes with improv. Arnett leads the show, starring as Terry Seattle, a detective solving murders with the help of a new partner with each case. The partners in question will be a new comedian for each episode, including O'Brien, Kumail Nanjiani, Ken Jeong, Marshawn Lynch, Annie Murphy, and Sharon Stone.
Murderville comes from showrunner Krister Johnson (Wet Hot American Summer) and features a recurring cast that includes Arnett, Haneefah Wood as Chief Ronda Jenkins-Seattle, Lilan Bowden as Medical Examiner Amber Kang, and Phillip Smithey as Detective Darren ‘Daz’ Philips. The series is based on the BBC Three show Murder in Successville, which aired from 2015 to 2017 and similarly featured a who's-who of British comedy guest stars. The unscripted show is a first for Netflix in terms of doing a regular comedy series in that format.
