To my surprise, while Conan O'Brien was a great guest, I thought Marshawn Lynch and Kumail Nanjiani were the class of season 1. Hoping there will be more seasons to come.

rather than whodunit, I would describe it as
murder mystery theater for the celebrity guest.
Everyone else is doing a semi-scripted improve thing, and the guest plays them-self needing to sus-out the murderer at the end of the episode.
it's good not great, but I do think it has room to improve.
