No Season 2 for the murder mystery series.
March 29, 2024
It is being reported that Death and Other Details has been cancelled by Hulu after one season. The news comes less than a month after the murder mystery series wrapped its 10-episode freshman run.
The story followed Imogene Scott, a brilliant and restless woman who finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, becoming the prime suspect in a murder that occurred on a lavishly restored Mediterranean ocean liner where everyone has something to hide. To prove her innocence, she partners with a man she despises - Rufus Cotesworth, the world's greatest detective.
Fortunately for viewers, the show resolved its central mystery by the season's end. The final scene did set the stage for a new case, but that storyline will now remain unexplored.

This was predictable and boring. They tried the Knives Out, and FAILED BIG TIME! I watched the first 2 episodes and realized this was more rom-com than "mystery", bad acting and dumb story. Another one bites the dust, had a feeling it would not be renewed, ain't missing much.

Weird. Seemed like this show had a lot of buzz.

It's like Only Murders in the Building, but with none of the big names and none of the charm.

Stylish and genuinely fun. Very escapist and a nice touch on the murder-mystery theme. It got a little OTT in the ‘whodunnit’ pay-off, but I mostly enjoyed the twists and turns throughout. Great cast.
I hope this gets picked up elsewhere.

I was so bored during this show that I am not surprised at all. The jumping between present and the past was just so annoying and the show tried to be too clever for its own good.
I have to say this is not a show I am going to miss much.

This show was interesting, it probably could have survived another season. There was a lot of room for Imogen to develop into an unique detective.

This started interesting.. but the season was too long and they started streeeeeeeetching.. and streeeeeetching.. and streeeetching.. and it became more soap opera than mystery. It would have been MUCH better as 6, maybe 8, episodes rather than 10. No wonder it was cancelled. I gave up before it ended because I became so bored by the soap.
And can I just slap the company responsible for the end titles.. yellow on yellow.. there's a brain-trust of design.
