Murder, They Hope

This so called comedy is a disgrace. Not funny, juvenile attempts at humour and pathetic storyline. To present this as adult entertainment is an insult.

Vegas and Gibson show they are still a magical pairing as they take the characters from the very good TV Movies and ease them into an even better 3-part series.

Janine Duvitski stole the show in episode one but she has fierce competition due to a brilliant and wonderfully sarcastic performance by the ridiculously underrated Shobna Gulati.

Sarah Hadland as the deranged Monica is also another hilarious turn.

There are plenty of laugh out loud moments and a lot of "yes, we know this visual gag could be seen coming from miles away but it's still funny" knowing winks to the audience which is part of the fun.

Murder, They Hope doesn't claim to be re-inventing the wheel. It's lighthearted, funny, well written and a nice, much needed change to the doom and gloom of the past year in real life.

The 4 main characters get better with each episode and I hope there will be a second series of this hidden gem.

The production values are very impressive and the guest stars well cast.

While this show is in fact not going to win awards, it is a wonderful little side track from our current hectic world. It is cute, funny and one does not need to be of sound mind to enjoy. I really like the Comedy and the who done it is gravy. I highly recommend for the laughs.

Some funny moments, but it almost feels as though they don't want to go the whole Carry on hog and let fly. I think this is due to the woke world we live in today, and the fear of not wanting to offend anyone. They should learn from Gervais and Chappelle and just go for funny.

The movies were silly, but watchable. The series is a waste of space. Plot is ridiculous and full of stale tropes. Couldn't make it through the first episode. I was hoping it may have improved on the films. Sadly. No.
