The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window

The first 10 mins of episode 5 is very Naked Gun with the bread text, can I trouble you for sugar, and double fisting wine bottles.

Really? Right after she said her daughter was dead, I turned it off. I was confused by it supposedly being black comedy and then she is suffering with something like that. But maybe I gave up too soon.

Some people don't. Nothing wrong either way. But just as people shouldn't be dissing your appreciation of Naked Gun, it goes both ways.

Find the stuff you like, and stick with it. Don't blame other people for not needing glasses.


Sigh. Whatever.

I’m a huge fan of humor and appreciate even the most obscure humor. To be clear: I see the humor. This series just missed the mark with poor direction.

I’m not saying it needed to be silly or over the top. Just better direction.

There’s a Netflix discussion group, and so many people don’t realize the series is a parody. That means the humor isn’t subtle; rather, the humor just isn’t actually funny.


If you can’t realize that “The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window” is a parody based on that title alone, then welp…[/quote

I mean, right?

I binged it yesterday. I ate a great breakfast today, but was still hungry. Then, all of a sudden, I had a desire to make a casserole. Anyone else feeling a little casserole-y after watching this?

What the hell was that? I can’t believe I watched the whole thing.

Yep. Tuna casserole made the meal plan for this week. 😋

DP. Completely agree. I love humor, of all kinds (dry, parody, ridiculous, campy, etc.). This just... wasn't that funny. Granted, I've only seen the first episode, so maybe it gets better. I did laugh at the filling of her bottomless wine glass.

So my friend didn't know this was a parody and told me how confused she was by the entire show.

Most people in this thread will say your friend is slow.

I just think the series was poorly directed.

I will say episodes 5/6? were very Naked Gun. Sex on the stairs and in the bowl of corks? I mean, the turtleneck scene was very Priscilla Presley.

Her endless supply of casserole dishes!

We guessed the killer before the reveal - and it didn't stop us from enjoying this series one bit. It was effing weird as eff and we really liked it.

I tell you what, it's no Only Murders in the Building but I will happily watch a second season.

I was just really hoping they didn't actually break real vintage Corningware. That stuff is the best!
