Cluedunnit
Cluedunnit is the podcast where we make wild guesses about fake TV crimes and discover real facts about the amazing people who brought the shows to life. Each week we watch a show, and try to immediately guess whodunnit, without any clues, context, or — apparently — accuracy. Then we spoil everything. We not only tell you who did it, but also who made it. And since watching TV is always better with friends, tell us your guesses, scores and “well, actually” remarks via @cluedunnit on Twitter and Facebook, and @cluedunnitpodcast on Instagram Alright, let’s find out who was right, who was wrong...

Ep. 89 - ROSEMARY & THYME - "Agua Cadaver"
We leave our Kenneth Branagh interlude behind for some sun, sex, and silly gardening hacks you won't believe! Which we're sure is some kind of TikTok trend that we're absolutely going to ignore. Because there's plenty of affairs to keep track of in this episode, what with the old flames and cheating spouses -- and that's before we factor in some ribald literary humor. That's right, our English degrees are good for something! Join us on the Cluedunnit Patreon (patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast) and tell us your favorite gardening hacks to find the dead bodies! We watched ROSEMARY & THYME season 3, episode 4, "Agua Cadaver." Want more? Join us on our Patreon at patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast !

Ep. 88 - WALLENDER - "An Event in Autumn"
There's bleak, then there's Nordic Noir bleak ... And then there's Nordic Noir Bleak as personified by Kenneth Branagh -- which is technically darker than winter in Sweden. We checked! I'm not saying Wallender's ring tone is the sunniest piece of this show, but I will say it has fan pages! And after watching some episodes we're fans, too! We talk about that ringtone, shine a light on some amazing doggy acting, and get totally confused trying to remember the plot to UNCLE VANYA. Join us on the Cluedunnit Patreon (patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast) and share the worst thing you ever found at your new house! We watched WALLENDER, series 3, episode 1, "An Event in Autumn."

Ep. 87 - A HAUNTING IN VENICE
In this episode we are joined by mystery novelist Eloise Corvo! She regales us with stories about horrors on the hiking trail and explains how the original Scooby-Doo TV show is a lot like Agatha Christie -- and it's not because Ms. Christie liked Scooby snacks. She also dishes about her upcoming book OFF THE BEATEN PATH -- a brand new cozy mystery coming soon to a bookstore near you. Get out your Halloween candy (or your favorite Venetian pastry!) and join us as we guess on A HAUNTING IN VENICE! You can follow Eloise online to find out exactly when her book is available online at www.eloisecorvo.com, on Instagram @eloisecorvo , or on TikTok @author_eloisecorvo .

Ep. 86 - HIGH POTENTIAL - "Croaked"
The only thing -- the ONLY thing -- you need to know about this episode is that this is the one where Jessica admits to licking a banana slug (not a euphemism) at Girl Scout camp in order to get high! At one point we also thought that a lizard might turn into an extra from Jurassic Park, Jacob confesses why he cleans in the buff, and we're both convinced that backstage on the set of HIGH POTENTIAL is just a mixture of show tunes and boxing -- but really you're only here for the banana slug story. Get your guesses in and get listening! We're starting an exotic pet menagerie on the Cluedunnit Patreon! (patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast) What pets should we have in it? What pets should we absolutely keep out? Come on over and let us know! We watched HIGH POTENTIAL season 1, episode 5, "Croaked." Want more? Join us on our Patreon at patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast !

Ep. 85 - WHITSTABLE PEARL - "A Cup of Kindness"
I'm a fan of oysters. I'm a fan of beer. Would I be a fan of oyster beer? (Stout, to be specific...) Who knows! But I am a fan of this show -- despite Mr. Grumpy-guts roaming around the docks and beaches. Apparently he is part some kind of British archetype dating back to possibly before ... checks notes ... Wuthering Heights and Heathcliff? Cue the Kate Bush and complicated female characters! We're going to start a microbrewery over the the Cluedunnit Patreon!

Ep. 84 - Matlock (2024) - "The Rabbit and the Hawk"
What do CHINATOWN, THE MUSIC MAN, and FISK have in common? Absolutely nothing! But that doesn't stop Jacob from comparing them to MATLOCK, all in a desperate attempt to delay his guesses. Jessica makes a much better case for this episode to be a lot like THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY -- but loses points for her inability to whistle the theme song. We clean up the water damage and make some guesses in this very visceral episode. Guess what! We're starting our own white-shoe guessing law firm over at patreon.com/cluedunnitpodcast ! Come on by and tell us what field of law you'd practice!

Ep. 83 - Harrow - "Sub Silentio"
We've seen a lot of fake dead bodies -- like, a LOT -- but none of them have been as unsettling as the ones in HARROW! Truly, extra credit to all the artisans and makeup experts on this show. This show removes a stomach from a body and empties it out on camera. If it's true that everything in Australia can kill you, then this show sets out to demonstrate how you'd figure that out. With so many lethalities populating Down Under, will that make it harder or easier for us to guess whodunit?

Hetty Wainthropp Investigates - "Family Values"
It's fun to approach HETTY WAINTHROPP INVESTIGATES as the biography of the world's foremost MURDER, SHE WROTE cosplayer. An English pensioner decides she's not going to let Jessica Fletcher have all the fun, and opens her own investigation agency -- after recruiting a criminally young hobbit. OK, the metaphor breaks down, people. But we had a lot of fun debating the difference between a pond and a fountain, whether or not murder accusations follow middle school fart logic, and how old you have to be in order to get really creative with the swears.

New Tricks - "17 Years of Nothing"
How confident is this show? The pilot of this show introduces the main character as she shoots a dog. And not in an "Old Yeller" kinda way! This shows has an exposition dump about salami. This show lights a freezer like it's a portal to the Twilight Zone, has boars eating a human body, and names a pathologist after a medieval fox. My friends, this show has no f*&%$ to give -- except when it comes to closing old cases, and we love it for that. Does that mean we actually get something right?

Elementary - "The Game's Underfoot"
Hey! We've got a Patreon now! Ever wanted to know what merchandise a show should have made? Or how Jessica learned to make smoke rings? Well all this plus early access to episodes and MORE can be yours! Join the fun over at https://www.patreon.com/c/CluedunnitPodcast . We've got a really trashy episode for you this week! The 20-teens version of Sherlock (nope, not that one -- the American one with Lucy Liu) goes looking for a left-handed archaeologist and discovers the sordid underbelly of urban development along with '80s video game urban myths. But first we tackle the really big questions: Is there anything better than an answering machine for delivering exposition? Is pie the official food of private investigators? Will Jacob ever remember an actor's name? We watched ELEMENTARY season 4, episode 5, "The Game's Underfoot." Spoilers ahead! Follow us on the socials and let us know what you think!

Dead Boy Detectives - "The Case of the Two Dead Dragons"
After taking it away from Max, Netflix took Dead Boy Detectives to the max! They test the premise in simple ways (turning a crow into a heartsick teen), inventive (using a magic bag to hide from a demon from the depths of Hell) and macabre (I guarantee you have never seen sausage links used like this). And we finally get to do some legit bonkers guessing! But do we get it right? (And where do the Dead Boys get their office supplies?)

Maigret - "Maigret and the Night Club Dancer"
It's a guest star extravanza! This show has the same number of guest stars as Maigret creator George Simenon had maids that he slept with. (It's more than you think!) This hard-boiled, early '90s take on a 1950s detective has smoking, stripping, saxophones direct from the '80s -- and famous people doing depraved things for love and drugs. Did the cognitive dissonance keep us from guessing whodunnit? Or can we actually get a win? We Watched Maigret season 2, episode 1, "Maigret and the Night Club Dancer."

Only Murders in the Building - "Open and Shut"
This is the end -- or the beginning of Season 2! Jess floats (and gloats) in an amazing victory while Jacob deals with his feelings. We exult in the power of the side eye in a close up, revel in the madness of a punning mass murderer, and clutch our pearls over the possibility of an Evil Ira Glass. Plus, Jacob denies every having worried about getting his nuts crushed in an elevator. We also hand out some Christies, because we finally finished Season One!

Elsbeth - "Something Blue"
It's another how-catch-em! Even after we know the criminal, can we guess how they catch 'em? Is Elsbeth really just Batman with tote bags? Can you make it rain with Post-It Notes? Does Nancy Silverton's latest cookbook give us a clue as to how the murderer is caught? Listen and find out as we watch Elsbeth season one episode 7, "Something Blue."

Only Murders in the Building - "Double Time"
Is the game "Peek-a-Boo" true crime for the pre-K set? Does a body double know you better than yourself? And does Jessica really think Only Murders is like the Barbra Streisand / Nick Nolte romance about childhood abuse "Prince of Tides"? We're on episode 9 of Only Murders in the Building Season 1.

So Help Me Todd - Twelve Worried Persons
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 investigator car. But can we guess the murderer correctly? #sohelpmetodd While you’re online, sign up for your very own official Cluedunnit Private Investigator license !

Only Murders in the Building - "Fan Fiction"
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 where can we find a floor plan for the Arconia?

Will Trent - "Two Hundred Dollars and a Bus Pass"
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 were dosing on. Will all the tea and training pay off with a correct guess?

Mrs. Sidhu Investigates - "Killer App"
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?

Only Murders in the Building - "The Boy from 6B"
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.

The Madame Blanc Mysteries - Season 2, Episode 7
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 like this, could we pull out a win? In case you're curious about that grandma song, here's a link to the video of "Grandma, We Love You," with the future star of Madame Blanc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsXJcIODLtQ And in case you weren't alive the first time this animal video swept over the internet, may I introduce you to the BBC's "Walk on the Wild Side." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaPepCVepCg While you’re online, sign up for your very own official Cluedunnit Private Investigator license !

Only Murders in the Building - "To Protect and Serve"
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.

Father Brown - "The Smallest of Things"
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?

Only Murders in the Building - "Twist"
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 alleyway in New York City -- but do we find anything that will lead us closer to the killer? We watched Only Murders in the Building, season 1, episode 5, "Twist."

McDonald and Dodds - "Belvedere"
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.

Only Murders in the Building - "The Sting"
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 Martin are also musicians, so what if they took on all of Sting's roles? I for one would love to have seen Martin Short in the 1984 David Lynch production of "Dune." And I think the last Police tour could really have benefited from Steve Martin on banjo. But did any of this help us narrow down the killer?!?!?? Listen and find out! We watched Only Murders in the Building, Season 1, Episode 4: "The Sting."

Monk - "Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie"
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 do we correctly guess the killer? Listen and find out! We watched the 2023 Monk special, "Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie."

Only Murders in the Building - ”How Well Do You Know Your Neighbors?”
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 watched Only Murders in the Building, season 1, episode 3, "How Well Do You Know Your Neighbors?"

The Irrational - ”The Barnum Effect”
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, we can get it right?

Only Murders in the Building - ”True Crime”
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 the murderers, cheese-mongers, and Off-Broadway shows in "Only Murders in the Building." We watched Only Murders in the Building season 1, episode 1, "True Crime." Hey!

Shakespeare & Hathaway - ”Ill Met by Moonlight”
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 on the series 1 season finale of Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators!

Shakespeare & Hathaway - ”The Chameleon’s Dish”
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, and Luella go absolutely mental on mushrooms. But can we guess the murderer? We watched Shakespeare & Hathaway, series 1, episode 8, "The Chameleon's Dish." Hey!

Shakespeare & Hathaway - ”This Rough Magic”
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 for revenge) and we debate if we'd rather party with hobbits or Geralt.

Vera - ”Broken Promise”
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 how fast Jacob talks.

My Life Is Murder - ”Look Don’t Touch”
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.

Picture Perfect Mysteries - ”Dead Over Diamonds”
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 Diamonds.”

Brokenwood Mysteries - Dog Day Morning
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?

We bring in another guest star: Tracy Friedman, the writer of this episode of Murder, She Wrote!

iZombie - Insane in the Germ Brain
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 interviewed iZombie writer Sara Saedi about how she started writing and how the team approached writing cases and love stories in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. We have a little teaser for that interview in this episode ahead of the full interview next week. Of course there’s still our patented guesses and randomness, including: Who would win in a show show-down between iZombie and Lucifer? Is it a Head of Hair, or Head of Hair Department? And does a zombie show actually deliver the most realistic depiction of detective work we’ve ever seen? Don’t make us go full Romero! Start listening now!

Murder in Provence
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 folks in stories created by a Canadian — and the cognitive dissonance is killing us!

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

Agatha Raisin ”The Curious Curate”
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!

McDonald & Dodds
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 than scratching up a first-printing Teddy Prendergrass LP?

So Help MeTodd
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 this being a comedy, not a drama. We watched So Help Me Todd , episode two, “Co-pilot,” on CBS.

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 of “Bones,” entitled “The Crack in the Code.” We streamed it on Hulu.

Ep. 27 - Miss Scarlet and the Duke
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 fun and tell us your guesses online at: Twitter: @cluedunnit Facebook: @cluedunnitpodcast Instagram: @cluedunnitpodcast

Ep. 26 - Magnum, P.I.
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, playwright Wayne Rawley and actress Alyssa Bostwick as we break down why Fig Newtons, VCR tapes, and Agatha Christie marathons make for one weird episode! We watched Magnum, P.I., season four, episode 12, “The Case of the Red-Faced Thespian.” We streamed it on FreeVee.

Ep. 25 - Murder, She Wrote
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! This week we guess on “Murder, She Wrote,” a classic with deep roots in the history of TV. Will all our training over summer hiatus enable us to guess correctly? Or will we have to rely on Jessica Fletcher to clue us in? Listen and find out! We watched “Murder, She Wrote,” season 3, episode 12, “The Corpse Flew First Class.” We streamed it on Peacock.

Ep. 24 - Shakespeare and Hathaway
This week we go back in time and watch Shakespeare solve the murder of who killed Kit Marlowe! Wait, no, I’ve got that all backwards — “Shakespeare and Hathaway” is a modern-day comedy mystery of an unlikely crime-solving duo that keeps Stratford-upon-Avon safe from criminals. I like my idea better. I want see Shakespeare solving crimes while tooling around Stratford in a Ferrari horse cart and delivering his inner PI monologue in iambic pentameter. We watched season 2, episode 9, “The Envious Court.” Knowledge of “As You Like It” not necessary, but fun! We streamed the episode on BritBox.

Wine, women, and murder! This week Cluedunnit watches "Women's Murder Club," the short-lived but totally great mystery procedural set in San Francisco just before the advent of the iPhone. When someone is murdered by getting run over by a vintage car, we get to guess who did it, and why -- as well as scrutinize the invention of modern dance, schoolgirl crushes on the BeeGees, and the correct way to reference Bay Area Rapid Transit. We watched Women’s Murder Club Ep. 10, “FBI Guy” on the streaming service Tubi.

Ep. 22 - Aurora Teagarden Mysteries
Murder, murder most foul! But with a really nice Christmas ornament section. Return to the Hallmark Murder-verse with us as we watch Aurora Teagarden try to solve a killing in her small town, while family members object to her morbid curiosity and maybe secretly wonder when they’re going to fall prey to the librarian’s incessant need for a murder to solve. We watched "Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Dead Over Heels" on the Hallmark app. Join the fun and tell us your guesses online at: Twitter: @cluedunnit Facebook: @cluedunnitpodcast Instagram: @cluedunnitpodcast

Ep.21 - Murdoch Mysteries
Constable Murdoch didn't invent the re-watch podcast, but that might be the only thing he didn't! We visit Edwardian-era Toronto to solve the mystery of Canada's first vehicular homicide as we watch The Murdoch Mysteries, season 11, episode 7, titled "The Accident." He solves the crime, but can we solve why he's a cop instead of a full-time inventor?
