Whodunnit?

Well I didn't know what to expect but I was happy with the show.

I think the concept is great, a group of people in a murder mystery, with the person that comes up with the story that is least like what actually happened dying in the next episode.

A few things I really like about how it all works.

1. The people get to decide to go to one of three areas, place the victim was before death, place where the person died, and the morgue. AND only 1 of these places, so they must try to either team up, extract info, overhear info etc to learn the rest of the story. This dynamic is perfect for the "real world" type of TV show. 2. Strategy plays a huge role, not to mention skill in observation. 3. The effects and reenactment is incredible! Really this adds a ton to the show.

I had to write this review because I saw another review with 1-star from a totally biased person, that doesn't like this type of show anyway....like someone not liking football and reviewing the Superbowl a 1-star. AND he mentioned not actually eliminating the people? HAHA! Yeah sorry people don't actually die in this show!

Some people compare shows to the high and mighty image of their favorite show from the past...you can like this show too...and I did...great first episode...loved the theatrics of the first episode finale,..I also loved the rest of the 9 episode series...and I didn't work out whodunnit but had more than enough info to do so...I recommend...at least watch the first episode and see if you get hooked like me....I hope there is a second series... Excellent production... The butler is fantastic.... The reality contestants are not annoying And well written crime investigation episode... Loved it... Great production... The Butler was fantastic... The reality contestants were not annoying (mostly).. Well written crime investigation scenarios.... I highly recommend...

Honestly if you watch this show, DO NOT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY! Because if you do, all you get is mediocrity. Although if you watch it as a comedy, it is one of the funniest shows ever. It has everything, bad acting, a British butler (with a bad British accent) saying bad puns, people act like the "murders" are real. Some of the contestants will even cry about the "murders". This show comedically reaches the same areas as "Birdemic", "The Room", "Troll" 2, "The Happening". I mean when the phone rings and the contact name comes up as "The KIller", how can you not laugh? And the horse episode had so many terrible horse puns it. But I can guarantee you if you watch it as a comedy, you will never stop laughing at how bad this show is. If the show is being watched as a serious reality show about fake murders and trying to solve them, I would give this show 1 out of 10 stars. But if you watch it like you do any of the movies I listed above, then you will love this show. So its rating as a comedy is a 10 out of 10 stars.

I was really excited about this show when I heard about it because I love whodunnits. However, it put me off the minute the contestants started speaking - reminded me too much of silly reality shows with the pointless self-centered drama. It had more of "the bachelor" feel than a murder mystery. The guests seem rather annoying and more focused on the prize than actually solving a murder and getting into the details. It would have been much better if they knew what they were there for rather than get all melodramatic. I'm guessing it's only a matter of minutes before they get personal and start complaining about the others and making personal attacks or talking about themselves. It doesn't seem like a intriguing game at all! For once, a murder mystery succeeded in getting me to not care who did it. Sorry, but this was so disappointing because I guess I was hoping for an intelligent "Cluedo" revival.

Whodunnit is such fun to watch! It's a Reality Clue-like murder mystery show in which a different "detective/guest" gets "murdered" on every new episode. It's up to the remaining contestants to solve how the "murder" took place. They split up and choose one of three places to help them solve the crime. They choose between "Last known whereabouts", "The scene of the crime", and "The morgue" to gather information and discover clues. Since each contestant can only visit one place, everyone is relying on the others to share information. This is where it gets tricky: you don't want to give away all of the information you have, but you need information from the other contestants. People tend to fudge things a little at this point. After everyone tries to dig information out of each other, they have to individually present their "case" to a camera in a room by themselves. The contestants that do well with solving the crime are presented with a card that says, "Safe". Those that don't do so well are presented with a card that says, "Scared". Those with a "Scared" card are eligible to be eliminated in a (fake) but gruesome way which creates the next crime to be solved. I cannot stress enough that this is a guilty pleasure show, don't take it too seriously, relax and just enjoy it!
