Deadloch (2023)

Where to find it: Amazon Prime Video
Length: Eight 1-hour episodes
Synopsis: Australian comedy-murder mystery
Recommendation rating: 3/5

What I like about it: fuuny, good characters, sustains interest
What I don’t like about it: a little long, tone doesn’t always mesh, underwhelming payoff

Review:
In this example and parody of dark murder mysteries, a Tasmanian cop finds that the town’s misogynistic men are being murdered and has to partner with a brash out-of-town detective to find out whodunnit. The comedy and mystery elements blend surprisingly well though not perfectly, especially at first.

Content notes (may contain spoilers): violence
