Bored to Death

BORED TO DEATH
Jonathan Ames’ nominally autobiographical “noir-otic comedy” casts Woody Allen’s MANHATTAN MURDER MYSTERY with a gaggle of Wes Andersonian misfits. Jason Schwartzman is charming as ever and Ted Danson steals every scene as a bored narcissist desperate for excitement. The show’s Brooklyn Hipster vibe would grate if it wasn’t so funny.
