This show within a show is equal parts police-procedural comedy and show-biz commentary. When the LAPD somehow deems it a good idea to team one of its homicide detectives with a Hollywood actor and film the whole experiment for a TV—oops, I mean, Internet—series, straight-laced, no-nonsense detective Jessica Mathers (Samira Wiley) gets saddled with the unceasingly exuberant and cheerful Ryan Hansen. Their sleuthing adventures are infused with celebrity—including Joel McHale, Donald Faison, Eric Christian Olsen, Jon Cryer, and Kristen Bell—all playing comedically warped versions of themselves.
