The Happytime Murders
“No sesame. All street.”
ActionCrimeComedy
In a world where humans coexist with puppets—who are seen as lesser citizens—cast members of a beloved 1990s children's television series begin getting murdered one by one. Puppet Phil Philips, an ex-LAPD detective-turned-private eye, takes on the case at the request of his old boss in order to assist his former partner, Detective Connie Edwards.
VIBE
This feels like a fever dream where your childhood puppet friends grew up to be foul-mouthed, hard-boiled detectives. Expect raunchy humor, gritty crime, and surprisingly elaborate puppetry in a propulsive, irreverent buddy-cop parody. It's a crude, shock-value ride.
