Murder in Suburbia (2004–2005)
4/10
a detectives series that is dead in the water
6 September 2022
It doesn't take much of a detective to spot the real criminals: the writers of this show. The lighthearted humor is a little lame. I don't mind that. And Caroline Catz is good enough as an actor. But there is so little depth to the characters, both the two female detectives and their supervisor, that I lost interest midway through the second episode. I thought if the first two episodes were a sign of things to come, better to find something else. Seriously, folks, if anyone (especially a female) has what it takes to be a detective they need to have more on their mind than multiple sex partners and whether to dress like the "wedding slut" at their ex's upcoming wedding. What's funny is Catz's boyfriend breaks up with her because all she talks about is murder and he's tired of it. But on the job, all Catz talks about is her boyfriends. So how does she ever catch the perpetrator? Sudden flashes of intuition. And there you have it. I predict, through one of my sudden flashes of intuition of course, that this show will not last long.
