The Residence

This is really a GREAT TV-show. Every one of us in my family was laughing out loud, it's funny.

The cast have performed well in a very keen observation but freedom given by the director.

I felt like, I was reading a really good novel. The pace is perfect for the story which is non stop fun.

Can I just say.... Editing was a work of a genius.

. As a full time professional editor myself, editing is the first and main thing Im looking for in a film/show. I can't imagine how much work it took to edit this type of show with every flash back, flash forward and present time which never feels messy, amazing work.

They found the perfect flow, matched with great music. I can imagine it must have been fun tho. Looking forward to finishing it off. If I don't see this show getting super high ratings I will be shocked for sure.

You can surely Enjoy.

Sheila is my girl! She is hilarious. Her character has little one liners that make you ask yourself "Did she just say that", (Lol) the looks, mannerisms. Love her. Not to take anything away from the whole show, it was brilliant! It has many good and funny characters, like the Presidents mother-in-law, the Austrailian aide that was in the garden with the female chef/cook. But Sheila kept me chuckling all the way through the series. I couldn't wait for her to be back on the screen, even in the background to see if she was up to something or was she MIA drinking MIL's vodka! I'm going to binge it all again because of my girl Sheila.

This show looks and sounds quite a bit like 'Only Murders In The Building', and it is quite similar. As if the female detective from season on of OMITB had her own show. But then it rolled out similar to a 'Thin Man' movie and/or an Agatha Christie plot with hints of Upstairs Downstairs.

It's quite entertaining and stands on its own. Each potential suspect has their own story, the writing is witty and the plot is THICK with all kinds of cobwebs. Everyone has a motive, even the guests at a state dinner. Detective Cupp is a very interesting woman and I enjoyed her analogies to birds and situations. I see a franchise waiting to happen and I am here for it.

Great show, but found myself looking at emails and doing laundry because it would go off on tangents. The acting is great! I never read the book it is based on. There are so many great characters, and it felt like a long version of the movie "Clue". There are just so many episodes that LAGGGGGG and LAGGGGG and LAGGGG. The first couple are great but 3-5 I really found so boring, yet I watched (even while doing other things), so maybe I missed something important, but I REALLY wished they would have shortened this down!

It is a good show, but, again, some episodes we could have done without or shorten them.

While this is the definition of bingeable "content", I think a weekly release would have given it so much more hype and a lot more people would be asking for more Cordelia Pupp adventures. It's about time Only Murders In The Building has some competition (and one with a much higher production value), and I don't think this made the splash it could have made with a weekly release schedule, let's just hope more and more people discover it in time.

While I can understand why someone would find it too drawn out, I definitely enjoyed every episode, even though in the beginning I thought this would be a disaster with so so many characters. But every one is well written, the cast is amazing, the quirks and laughs are there but don't feel forced, the mystery is well laid out and the solution isn't something crazy that would make you feel you wasted your time.

Everything was much better than I expected, everyone brings their A+ game, the production design is insane, the editing and the music glue everything together, Netflix please please please do the right thing and order at least 3 more seasons of this!
