Liked it well enough..

It kept me interested enough to look forward to each episode.

As a sort of cultural anthropology look at the extreme upper class lifestyle of pre-pandemic NYC, it's pretty great. Fantastic photography of the city and the lavish residences.

As a whodunit, it's pretty standard stuff. Lots of pointers in various directions to keep the viewer uncertain. This has been done often, and it is a winning formula, but it is nothing new.

But I did enjoy the acting all the way around. Hugh Grant is the standout, playing against his charming bloke persona, but also using it as part of a fairly complex personality. I thought the rest of them were fine, Donald Sutherland especially as infinitely rich curmudgeon.

If there is nothing that is really going to stay with me for long, I do like stylish murder mysteries, and this is one.
