The ending of Saw really got me, I was sure they were setting up a sequel with a cliffhanger ending when Adam Found the tape recorder before the final reveal.

Mare of East Town is great.

Only Murders is a comedy and very worthwhile if you like Short and Martin.

Great show so far. We're 5 episodes in and love it. It's not a who-done-it as far as mystery because you know in the first 10-15 minutes who did it. The rest of the show is the main character figuring it out.

Good job of bringing in big guest appearances for each episode where they are often the murderer or murdered.

The Fall TV series with Gillian Anderson but like most...

There's very little "whodunnits" anymore because the audience is shown who did it and is waiting for the police to catchup.

The only great shows that are exceptions in recent years is True Detective Season 1 and The Killing.

I've liked the Hercule Poirot movies that have come out over the last few years: Murder on the Orient Express, Death on the Nile, and A Haunting in Venice

One of the actresses from that show used to work with me. Very nice, but wasn’t that good at her job.
