Uzo Aduba and Randall Park Star in Netflix's 'The Residence'

Netflix's new series 'The Residence' features Uzo Aduba as Cordelia Cupp, a consulting detective, and Randall Park as FBI Special Agent Edwin Park, solving a murder mystery set during a White House State Dinner. Created by Paul William Davies and executive produced by Shonda Rhimes, the show blends elements of classic whodunits with a modern political twist, where the eclectic staff and guests, including celebrities like Kylie Minogue, become suspects in the murder of the White House chief usher, A.B. Wynter. The series is noted for its blend of humor and mystery, drawing comparisons to 'Clue' and 'Knives Out,' and challenges the protagonists to work together despite their differing methods. The plot thickens as the characters, all with secrets of their own, are woven into a complex narrative that ultimately reveals Lilly Schumacher (played by Molly Griggs) as the unlikely killer. The show has been praised for its engaging storyline and the chemistry between Aduba and Park, alongside its clever nods to other famous mysteries and a unique take on the White House setting.
