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 different series as the hot new shows Poker Face and So Help Me, Todd, silly series like Psych and Monk, costume pieces like Frankie Drake Mysteries and Vienna Blood, noir thrillers like the Prime Suspect and Endeavour, cozy Hallmark mysteries like Murder, She Baked, all the way to classics like Murder, She Wrote and Magnum P.I. We go worldwide too, watching mysteries from Italy, New Zealand, and more.

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?
We watched McDonald & Dodds, series 2, episode 3, “The War of the Rose,” on Britbox.

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.

Meet the new superwoman: Billie Blessings. She’s a best-selling author, chef, restauranteur, TV personality, and expert crime solver — suck on that, Martha Stewart! This episode, we invent a new form of forensics built around baked goods to try to get back into the win column. Does it work? Listen and find out!
We watched Morning Show Mysteries, “A Murder in Mind” on the Hallmark app.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
