Hulu has canceled the Mandy Patinkin-led drama series "Death and Other Details" after a single season, following lackluster reviews and a 55 percent score among critics on Rotten Tomatoes. The show, which was formerly known as "Career Opportunities in Murder and Mayhem," is expected to remain on the platform despite its cancellation. This decision comes as many streamers, including Hulu, are reevaluating their programming rosters and scaling back on pricey scripted originals.
Hulu has cancelled the Mandy Patinkin-led series "Death and Other Details" after its first season, which concluded on March 5.

Despite the ensemble cast and the show's potential, it will not be returning for a second season.
Death and Other Details, a new Hulu series, embraces the joyous silliness of its Agatha Christie-inspired murder mystery premise, featuring Mandy Patinkin as a genius detective solving murders at sea with his charming assistant Imogene. The show's satire isn't subtle, but it delivers a hoot with broad "eat the rich" themes, social media addiction, and light xenophobia. While the crimes themselves may not be particularly engaging, the series is a fun and entertaining watch that doesn't take itself too seriously.
"Death And Other Details" on Hulu follows a young woman, Imogene, and an old detective, Cotesworth, as they solve a murder on a luxury cruise ship. The show attempts to capture the essence of classic whodunits but falls short in creating an engaging mystery, instead focusing on distracting details and an overstuffed plot. While the potential for entertainment exists, the series feels too preoccupied with toying with viewers and lacks the necessary intrigue to sustain its complex storyline.
