The Playboy Murders (2023– )
2/10
Meh....
13 February 2024
Season one was mildly intriguing. Most of the epiodes held a viewer's attention and they didn't stray too far off of the actual murder story. Although they did meander at times.

Season two is pretty bad. I mean they are *clearly* stretching to find connections to Playboy... someone who happened to be a Bunny at one of the clubs back in the early days of the 60s (for probably a short period - they don't say), ends up in a murder case some 50 years later.. and that's the tie in.. that's an exception amount of reaching. That reach seems to be happening throughout all of season 2. I'm just waiting for them to start detailing stories of murders related to the cleaning staff at the mansion in the 70s, or a gardener.....

Every episode is more boring than the last.. 60% of the episodes are just "backstory" for some Playboy related woman, then pretty bad "podcast-like" narrative to explain things surrounding crimes..

The last episode wasn't even a murder....

....they have no clue what show they are making.

It's just coming across more and more as nothing more than a desire to defame Playboy in some manner.

Holly Madison is a terrible host. Long, droning, monotone, speeches with no vocal inflection or apparent interest in the story being told. Honestly it'll put you to sleep.

Pass.
