Big fan of beloved Steve Martin and I watched all his films up until 2000s. They're all outstanding flicks that I enjoy revisiting. Martin Short is also an unforgettable iconic comedian. His Saturday night show sketches are unforgettable. So I was so psyched to watch this show when I saw the cast. Unfortunately I barely made it to the end of the first episode. I'm a mystery fan and NYC is my second home..so again in the beginning I was so excited as both genre and location felt so close to heart. For me major disappointment is the plot. I mean the mystery element appeared too 'manufactured' and 'imposed upon viewer' even if it is not gripping enough in essence. Just not engaging enough. It lacks the level of sophistication required to make it intriguing.
Dialogues are less than witty and humour falls far from sarcasm. Mostly sounding corny. Perhaps I found it flat because I'm more of a black comedy lover. Mystery factor faded away underneath sitcom appeal. Plus Selena Gomez's poor monotone performance didn't help.
