The Afterparty is the best of the bunch. Apple TV+’s newest charmer exceeds even the loftiest of expectations as it delivers an uproarious, cleverly crafted murder mystery that’ll leave you wanting more.
Television is often discussed as a collaborative medium, but few programs take full advantage of each employed artist. Like any good shindig, “The Afterparty” depends on every person involved to bring their best stuff, and then together, they turn it out.

A triumphant return to live action from Lord & Miller after extensive work in animation. Rewrites the book on how to direct, write and produce tv. The first time a tv show actually felt like a movie for me.

SEASON 1
Hurray for Lord and Miller. Sure, there are the Jump Streets, and Spiderman and the Lego Movie, etc etc etc. What The AfterParty reminds me of are their TV efforts like The Last Man On Earth. Take a high concept and cram in as much comedy as possible. Second hurrays for the team of Sam Richardson and Ben Schwartz, the amateur sleuths putting together their own investigation aside from officers Tiffany Haddish and John Early. The Roshamon style plot has attendees of a 15 year high school reunion telling their "mind movies" after the death of famous pop star/actor Xavier, played by Dave Franco in full **** mode. So far in the first three episodes we've had rom-com, a fast and furious parody and musical. It's the details that makes this hilarious. The Ike Barinholtz action movie parody has an actual pissing contest and is filmed in widescreen in the neon lit style of F & F, and of course it's about family. And I actually want to see Will Forte and Dave Franco's Hungry Hungry Hippo Movie. Can't wait to see what follows.

SEASON 1
Given that A-list talent, it’s not as consistently funny as one might expect, but there’s simple joy in watching these people do what they do so well on a program that’s buoyant, funny, and engaging.
It’s smart, with thoughtful ideas to offer those who feel like engaging with them — but it’s concerned first and foremost with having a good time.
More situationally and character-driven funny than jokey funny, “The Afterparty” offers a decent enough blend of humor and mystery.
Even with its flaws The Afterparty goes down easily enough, but as potential binges go, it's hardly a VIP ticket -- less the stuff of appointment viewing than simply, well, an afterthought.
Neither funny nor gripping, intriguing nor moving. ... The result is a surprisingly boring fever dream with glossy production values. If this is the future of television, pass me the bottle.
