Enjoy your favorite TV mysteries with us. Each episode we watch show and immediately guess whodunit, without any clues, context, or — apparently — accuracy. Then we spoil everything. We not only tell you who did it but also who made it, with fascinating looks into the careers, lives, and trivia of the artists themselves and special interview episodes with the writers of TV mysteries. If it’s got a mystery, we watch it! Cluedunnit has guessed on TV case-of-the-week episodes from such differen ...

There's so much musical theatre talent in this episode we nearly burst into song. We didn't, but we did create radio plays based on TV and theatre's on-again/off-again relationship. Jessica makes an incredible faux pas around murder boards while we launch an investigation into whether a BMW or an old Volkswagen bus make a better bitchin' private in…

Follow me now into an episode of mirrors where our fake-crime fan podcast about a TV show about a true crime podcast that stages a play with their fans to create a fake ending to their totally made-up real mystery. I think the idea of "meta" just collapsed under the weight of this conceit. Can we salvage some correct guesses out of the rubble? And …

We go back to college with Will Trent! Our senior thesis group project is trying to make a detective show built entirely around tea. Which is good because apparently Jacob has only been eating raw egg smoothies while training to get better at guessing. Maybe he should have just stuck to the experimental drugs like the college kids in this episode w…

Our favorite caterer passes the PI test! She has a bitchin' car, so she can solve all the crimes she wants to as far as we're concerned. Jessica shares some conspiracy theories about the album "Abbey Road" that go beyond "Paul is dead," and maps out England's comeback as Christmas movie king. But can she correctly guess the killer? While you’re onl…

We get loud about a silent episode! We learn what Teddy's favorite musical is, just how bad Charles is at Scrabble, and, oh yeah, who killed Zoe. Get ready for some big emotions people because this episode rocked our world with revelations galore -- but only one line of spoken dialogue. Nathan Lane won an Emmy for this episode, so did the sound cre…

We're not afraid to tackle the hard questions on this show. To wit: Would it be worth having a job based around antique bedpans to live in the South of France? Could a song about grandmas really be a number one hit? Would community theatre practitioners resort to a crime spree in order to fund their latest production? And maybe, somehow, with facts…

We learn the truth about Gut Milk! And expired hummus! We also reflect on when people move beyond being "randos" or the femme fatale into actually being friends. And Jacob picks a new suspect who is ... a character on a barely-remembered Fox sitcom? While you’re online, sign up for your very own official Cluedunnit Private Investigator license! (ht…

Father Brown meets a hero of his ... and gradually realizes she's a little cuckoo. But is she crazy enough to have murdered three people? And what exactly is Reiki applause? And could a stripper have the best role in a series led by a priest? Break out your scariest murder doll and guess along as we watch Father Brown solve "The Smallest of Things.…

They have a bitchin' car! Ladies and gentlemen, Only Murders in the Building has nailed another trope: Our fearless investigators now have a bitchin' 1973 Peugeot! Apparently it's in rough shape and needs to be brined which, OK, but it's good enough to get them out to Long Island and running on fumes and horrible puns. Mabel also finds the only all…

Tell me you were filmed post-COVID lockdown without telling me: There was a bike race, a changing of the guard, a lecture hall, a tai chi class, sunbathers, and a more frisbee throwers than the crowd outside a Phish concert -- all before the title sequence. We tackle whether serial killers eat french fries or salad, but do we guess the killer corre…

Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig may get more screen time, but Sting is truly the star of this episode. Which makes us wonder: What other Steve Martin or Martin Short movies would benefit from having Stings as a co-star? Would he have been a good heart-throb in Roxanne? Sting as the fourth Amigo? Sting as the fiancee in Father of the Bride? But Steve and M…

They have three punctuation marks in one title, which is impressive, but I feel like they could have gotten more if they really tried. It's just begging for an exlamation mark at the end and I bet they could have put an umlaut over the "o" in Monk and really screwed with everyone. We debate our own head canon about who characters really are -- but …

He actually exists! Despite our frequent jokes to the contrary, Kit Lambert is an actual real person, not just Jude Tindall's alter ego. And he was gracious enough to join us on the pod. Listen in to hear about angsty teenage poetry, honeymoon poison discoveries, and getting thrown out of a funeral's wake with a heavy metal band. Thanks, Kit! And h…

In the battle between Sting, a concertina, and a bassoon, which would you pick as more annoying? We also learn that Charles is allergic to cat hair (and stress) and that even though Oliver is apparently allergic to good taste he is one helluva fundraiser. This episode makes some truly horrific things funny, but did it help us guess the murderer? We…

Jacob attempts to school Jessica about the natural pecking order of whales and bunnies, but all Jessica really learns is why Jacob nearly failed high school biology. Meanwhile, Jessica reveals something about herself we all should have seen coming. We watched Only Murders in the Building, season 1, episode 2, "Who Is Tim Kono?"…

We're back in the States where lying and explosions are rampant! In true NBC fashion they want the viewer to know that this episode is in no way based on any real person, entity, or event. Which is fine by us, because our guesses are based on nothing more than anxiety dreams of college psychology and musical theatre lyrics! But maybe, just maybe, w…

They're national treasures in a season-long mystery. We, like moths to a flame, are mesmerized by it -- but could never do it on the podcast because the season-long story would ruin our format... Until now! We finally get to watch the show thanks to these bite-sized episodes that are still full of laughs and guesses! Listen along as we guess about …

In which Jessica recounts all of the horrible productions of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and reaffirms her vow that it need never be staged again. We tell two young actors they should stay away from the stage (for reasons unrelated to their skill) and Jacob laments the necessity of a "Will they, won't they" dynamic. And somewhere in there we guess …

Are you ready for a clanging good time? Jessica applies to be on the Podcast Adjudication Board, we discover a savory (and sweet!) English breakfast pastry that will soon be adopted by Hot Pockets, and we get one of the world's best chase scenes ever! Plus rat poison, sexual harassment, and Sebastian in a chef's toque! We watched Shakespeare & Hath…

We guarantee you've never truly seen "Hamlet" until you've seen Jacob perform Laertes in pink sweatpants. Unfortunately for you, this means you will never see Hamlet as pictures of this stunning endeavor no longer exist. Happily for us, we got to see what Frank's inner child needs to grow into an adult, Sebastian improvise a goth peanut allergy, an…

Welcome to our latest episode where we’ll greet you with a nod, hug, handshake, bow, or fist bump of your choice. And hugging, because we’re Americans and we can’t stop the hugging! We also debate whether British pants have pockets and offer a PSA on when it’s a good idea to shove bloody money down your pants. Spoiler: It’s never. You should never …

Wherein we recount the tale of how we were kind of actually pursued by a bear! We also rhapsodize about such things as sunny moors, praise the cozy, and discuss our favorite scenes from the past year. What’s your favorite scene from a TV show or movie over the past year? Tells us on social media and we’ll share it on the pod! We watched Shakespear …

Trigger warning for theatre nerds! We say “Macbeth” a LOT this episode. Trigger warning for anglophiles! Jacob makes a prat of himself and gets the word “tickety-boo” completely wrong! Trigger warning for pavement-ophiles! We make fun of cobblestones in this episode! We do a lot of wrong things in here. But do we get the guesses right? We watched S…

The actor who plays Jaskier (Joey Batey) in The Witcher guest stars in this episode of Shakespeare & Hathaway, so we brainstorm ways to get more monsters (not just fairies) into Shakespeare's plays. Jacob disrespects the "To Be or Not To Be" soliloquy, Jessica conjures up the most baroque guess we've ever had (seriously, it involves harpists out fo…

What makes Vera so compelling? Is it her motherly advice to get babies drunk to make them stop crying? Is it the unflappable manner in which she only ever asks her suspects one question? Is it the joy she takes in unraveling some truly baroque murder mysteries? That's a lot of questions to answer in an hour -- especially when we try to slow down ho…
  continue reading
 
We compare Lucy Lawless to Shania Twain, Sigourney Weaver, and Gal Gadot then wax philosophical about the role Ben Affleck's stubble plays in the DC Universe. We also guess on My Life Is Murder, a New Zealand cozy mystery while Jacob tries to make rival costumers a thing and we read some truly horrifying descriptions of the main character's coat. C…

For our season finale, we interview Mark and Sarah from The Mystery Maniacs podcast! They introduce us to the fine art of corpse acting, dispel a Sister Boniface conspiracy theory, and share why they think Murdoch Mysteries is such an iconic show. You can find Mystery Maniacs Podcast on all your podcatcher platforms, on the web at https://midsomerm…

It’s an all-star season finale! We watch an episode featuring the winner of our TV Detective championship, the artful detective William Murdoch himself, and chat with two TV murder experts, Mark and Sarah from the Mystery Maniacs podcast! Does Murdoch invent the banana hammock? Or the male gaze? Can Mark and Sarah explain to us what the deal with f…

You thought you had a side hustle? In addition to making wine and waking up early for prayers, Sister Boniface runs a full 1960s crime lab — in a town called GREAT SLAUGHTER. So yeah, she’s busy. This episode brings a deadly beauty pageant to her abbey, and we bring the wild guesses! We watched Sister Boniface Mysteries season 1 episode 10, "Crimes…

The Hallmark Channel loves Christmas so much, they put Santa Claus to work in their murder mystery shows! Santa has an attack of angina during a jewel heist and only Ponch from CHiPs can solve the mystery! There’s a lot that’s wrong about that sentence, but can we guess whodunit correctly? We watched Picture Perfect Mysteries, Episode 2, “Dead Over…

We fell hard for Poker Face. HARD. So many people we love are involved in it; the stories are messy and fun and human; the production values are off the charts — AND THEY TELL YOU WHODUNIT IMMEDIATELY! We can always win when we watch! Wait — the Podcast Adjudication board is telling me we still have to guess? Listen to find out how we do it and whe…

Nic Sampson played Detective Constable Sam Breen on The Brokenwood Mysteries for many years — and he also wrote the episode we guessed on! In this interview we ask him how he made the shift from acting to writing, New Zealand to London, and from Power Rangers to improv. He also shares how he came up with the idea for an exploding port-a-potty in on…

At one time or another we’ve all asked “Who let the dogs out?” But also: How long will they stay out? Can they be put back in? And most importantly: Why did they think a plant was the best weapon to use while robbing a bank? It’s a light-hearted robbery gone sideways this week as we guess for The Brokenwood Mysteries and talk to series regular (and…

This episode starts with a dead body in a bathtub full of coffee — so you know we loved it! Join us as we visit turn-of-the-(last)-century Vienna and answer the burning questions: Did Freud do cocaine? Is Jessica’s accent German or just Californian? Which of the extras best represent Jacob’s distant relatives? Join us in a swanky cafe as we guess V…

Tracy Friedman is a writer, director, dancer, choreographer -- and a freelancer for Murder, She Wrote! She penned the episode we guessed on, "The Witch's Curse." We talked to her about snagging the job, convincing Randy Newman to let her make a jukebox musical of his hits, surviving a writers' strike while trying to break in, and more! Check it out…

Put on your best Maine accent (or your best Received Pronunciation) and return with us to Cabot Cove! We pay homage to a titan of stage and screen, Angela Lansbury, with another Murder, She Wrote classic. MSW always had amazing guest stars, and this episode is no different! Which one of these tidbits is a lie: One guest star has more than 280 IMDB …

Sometimes the algorithm gets it right! Netflix showed us a preview for this show and we just had to watch it! This historical dramatization of Italy’s first female lawyer is set in 1883 but it out-Americans modern-day crime shows! Sex, murder, a chase — all in the first minute? Way to go Lidia! The computer got it right — does that mean we have a c…

In this sidebar episode of Cluedunnit we sit down with writer Sara Saedi. She was in the writers room for iZombie, is currently working on Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, and has a bunch of other interesting credits and stories she shares with us, including the weirdest thing she ever had to look up for a mystery and how the pandemic inspired he…

BIG NEWS! We’ve always wanted to learn more about the creators behind the shows we watch — and this week we start asking them!

We have a little teaser for that interview in this epis…

Trigger warning for midwesterners: In this episode we complain about being cold in California winters. And since it is the middle of winter, it’s time for our annual idyll in southern France! This year we visit sunny Aix-en-Provence — or is it in the middle of Oxfordshire, England? This show has a lot of English folks playing very, very French folk…

We get some thrilling Hawaiian action this week with the reboot of “Magnum PI”! Magnum … becomes an efficiency expert? In an office?

Raisins are sweet. Agatha Christie is one of the best mystery writers of all time. Would a mash-up of the two equal a sweet mystery show? Jessica confesses which acting teacher scared her to death and Jacob breaks out some non-traditional acting exercises as we try to get in the win column! We watched Agatha Raisin, series 2 episode 3, “The Curious…

What do you put on your fries? Ketchup, vinegar, mayonnaise, or butter? Which you choose will tell us a lot about who you are and how handy you might be in guessing for our latest show! We head to Bath, England to see which member of a deeply, deeply dysfunctional plastic surgery team killed a social media influencer — and is that better or worse t…
  continue reading
 
Is it sparkly because it’s new? Or is it sparkly because of all the rain in the Pacific Northwest? Or is sparkly because it’s just a damn good show? Maybe all of the above? Luckily, we’ve got a new private detective to help us figure it all out! Jessica does a deep dive on stools, Jacob gives TV critics the what for, and we both make a case for thi…

Break out your barbecue sauce and your crosswords, it’s time for a very bloody episode of Cluedunnit! Jessica gets all suspicious of Will Shortz, and Jacob takes not one, not two, but three stabs at guessing who did it. Will he get it right this time? Or will he pack it all in to become a super-fan of “Murder Flip”? We watched season 7, episode 6 o…

This week we tackle the central question of any mystery show: Pockets. Are they worth it? We also interrogate sound effects around horses and try yet again to recreate the musical theme to a show using only our mouths. We watched “Miss Scarlet and the Duke,” season 1, episode 6, “The Case of Henry Scarlet.” We streamed it on the PBS app. Join the f…

We go back to the ’80s this week for a tropical holiday with what may be the most famous mustache in all of TV: Tom Selleck as “Magnum, P.I.” I don’t know why showing so much body hair was a good idea, but Tom Selleck makes it work! And like we always say, “Watching TV is always better with friends.” So this week we are joined by our good friends, …

Return with us now to the thrilling era of yesteryear, when network shows had budgets to hire 15 day players, fake mustaches could be hidden in the low-res broadcast transmission, and gigantic accents roamed the earth!
