Avis à la une
I almost watched season 2 first because it had all the actors I had been seeing in the advertisements, and I didn't even know there was a first season. I kind of wish that I had watched in reverse, because season 1 was so good and season 2 fell flat. While season 2 appears to have a bigger budget, and it is more cinematic, it just doesn't have what season 1 had... humor.
Actually if I had watched season 2 first, I probably would have just turned it off. Season one feels like a real murder mystery, but it's also funny, the characters are likable, the music is great (Xavier's closing credits track is a legit banger), and it pulled me in so well that I binged the whole first season in a day.
Season 2 has been difficult to get interested in. After finishing an episode I have no desire to watch another, so I turn it off for a few days. You do not feel as attached to the characters as S1, so you don't really care who is the killer. In S1 I found myself guessing, but also hoping that it wasn't a character I liked. Also, in S1 I felt that any one of the characters could potentially be the killer, same way I felt watching Scream as a kid. But in S2, no one's motive seems strong enough to kill for really, and again, I don't really care enough because you do not feel as attached to the characters as S1.
Maybe it is because S1 takes place after a high school reunion, so the bonds feel more real. The story of these people having history and long term grudges is more believable and better explained. S2 takes place at a wedding where virtually everyone is a stranger, even the bride and groom. The relationships are flimsy, the grudges are silly to none existent, and the sense of urgency is gone.
As of writing this, only 7 episodes of S2 have been released, and I've watched them all. By the 7th episode (not counting the whole S1 I just watched) I should care about the characters and the story, but I don't. This is not to say they're bad, because they aren't. The actors are great, and they've done some cool episodes which are each a nod to a style of film, but the magic isn't there.
I highly recommend season 1 and the song from it "Imma live Forever" by Xavier. Season 2 is neat but meh.

The first season of "The Afterparty" is somewhat similar to the concurrent "Woman In The House Across The Street From The Girl In The Window": both have an eccentric sense of humor and march to their own beat, switch genres from episode to episode (hint: pay close attention to the opening animated credits), do not always give audiences what they want, and sometimes sideline the crime investigation part altogether. The quality varies from episode to episode, with 3 being thoroughly brilliant (it demands to be seen more than once) and 7 being the weakest (perhaps the only time where a bold narrative choice does not quite pan out). Episode 1 is very sweet, episode 6 is very creative, and episode 8 proves how elaborately and carefully designed the whole mystery plot is. Overall the season is very enjoyable, and the whole cast works together beautifully: even minor characters like Indigo or Walt are great. The second season is about as good as the first on the whole: perhaps it has nothing on the order of S1 E3, but it may be more consistent, with just one weak spot (E6). It maintains the same mix of deadpan humor and intricate plotting (with every episode we gain new insights), and most of the genre homages (particularly the one to Hitchcock) are spot-on. The S2 finale certainly ties everything together neatly, yet I found it ever so slightly underwhelming - I expected something a little more shocking. I will still be watching any future seasons of this show made by the same people. 8/10.
This is a funny, clever whodunnit with smart writing and an A-List ensemble of comic actors - but I had never heard of it - I am bombarded by trailers and promos for shows 24/7.
I don't know what the folks at Apple TV+ were thinking by slipping this ingenious gem under the promotional carpet.
It's a playful, smartly constructed mystery from The Lego Movie guys, with each episode being told from the point of view of a different suspect - each in a different movie genre style: romcom, action, thriller, musical, animation, and so on.
Everyone in the cast is at the top of their comic game, and they all seem to be having a great time. Now stop reading this and go watch it.

I thought The Afterparty was going to be some corny comedy with juvenile humor. I was wrong. It is so much better than I expected. This is actually a pretty good murder mystery and the casts are terrific for both seasons. I love how each episode is told through the perspective of a different character, it makes the show seem original and clever and not just another who dun it show. It's almost impossible to guess the killer for each season (which makes it that more interesting). The best way to watch this is to binge it. As much as I was looking forward to this second season after how good the first one was, I still waited for all the episodes to drop before I started it. I suggest you do the same for future seasons because the story just flows better not having to wait a week between episodes. I really hope they keep doing new seasons with all new casts, kind of like what they do for The White Lotus. I think they can keep this going for several more seasons before it gets repetitive.
This show is super fun to watch, likeable characters, detective lady is so cool y'all, no laughter track and clever jokes. Yasper (Ben) is my favourite character (for now). Ben schwartz was super awesome in Parks and Recreation too. Xavier is kinda like Justin Beiber. Can't wait for the 4th episode!
