Murder has never been this funny. The Afterparty is chock full of familiar comedy alums trying to solve the murder of classmate-turned-rockstar Xavier (Dave Franco). The scene of the crime: their 15-year high school reunion.

Danner (Tiffany Haddish) takes it upon herself to become lead detective. Each episode focuses on a different character — and is told through a different genre that corresponds to their personality. Critics at Roger Ebert enjoyed the show’s cheeky exploration of genres and tropes, saying it kept the season from going stale.

Aniq (Sam Richardson) is an adorkable loverboy who gets his own romcom episode. Another character (Ike Barinholtz) gets an action movie, complete with a daring car chase. Yasper (Ben Schwartz) gets a musical…

…you get the gist. The constant changeup may be a bit distracting if you’re looking for something more cohesive, but it is still an extremely enjoyable watch, full of timely pop culture references. From Wes Anderson parodies to Jane Austen-esque drama, The Afterparty does it all.

WHERE TO WATCH- All episodes are streaming now on Apple TV+.
