Fans of Improv are going to love "Murderville" on #netflix.

Eccentric detective Terry Seattle (played by the hilarious Will Arnett) teams up with a new clueless celebrity guest star on each of the 6 episodes in series one.

Stars include (Stuber, The Big Sick) Kumail Nanjiani, Sharon Stone & late night TV Talk Show host Conan O'Brien.

The guest stars have no script and no idea of the plot line which is wickedly funny, especially when Will has to adlib to their reactions.

Together they investigate a series of murders in this improvisational crime comedy and the guest who plays a Trainee Cop has to solve the crime by the end of the episode given the cryptic clues laid out over each half hour instalment.

The results are very natural and better than most totally scripted streaming shows.

It's got it all comedy, crime and mystery.

While it might not be everyone's cup of tea I'm enjoying it.

Directed by Iain Morris the EP on "The Inbetweeners" which took me back to my high school days.

Here's hoping this is the first of many series of "Murderville" based on the British show, "Murder in Successville".
