The Afterparty TV Series Storyline (Plot):
The Afterparty is an American murder mystery comedy streaming television series created and directed by Christopher Miller. Starring Tiffany Haddish, Sam Richardson, Zoë Chao, Ike Barinholtz, Ben Schwartz, Ilana Glazer, Jamie Demetriou, Dave Franco, and Elizabeth Perkins.
The series takes place at a high school reunion after-party with each episode “a different character’s perspective” of what happened that night. Critic Olivia Rutigliano noted that it is an example of “the millennial whodunnit,” a new subgenre of murder mystery in which the investigation is a vehicle for characters to find second chances, personal fulfillment, and a departure from boring or oppressive daily life (through the feeling that their life has become a new genre).
