Why The Residence Should Be Your Next Binge-Watch


This past weekend, besides spending quality time with family and getting a much-needed reboot, I also dived into some great TV. I caught up on the latest episode of Daredevil, but what truly caught my attention was a completely different show—one that had me hooked from start to finish in just two days.

That show is The Residence, and trust me, this is one you need to add to your watchlist immediately.

A Whodunit with a Twist

At first, The Residence gave me strong whodunit vibes, similar to Paradise or even Knives Out—you know, the first one in Rian Johnson’s mystery movie series. But as the show progressed, it started feeling like something more than just a classic murder mystery.

Coming from Netflix via Shondaland, The Residence brings a mix of humor, mystery, and thriller elements. It even reminded me of The Afterparty on Apple TV+—a show I never really looked into in terms of its creator, but one that also had that mix of genres.

Blending Mystery and Thriller with a Touch of Comedy

If you’re a fan of Only Murders in the Building, you’ll likely enjoy The Residence as well. It carries that same balance of mystery and humor, making it more than just another serious crime drama. But what sets it apart is its setting—the White House. With its political backdrop and high-stakes intrigue, the show delivers a fresh take on the murder mystery genre, adding an extra layer of tension to the story.

Final Thoughts: Watch It Now

Regardless of what you're currently binge-watching, The Residence deserves a spot on your list. It has everything—suspense, comedy, and a compelling mystery that keeps you guessing. If you're into The Afterparty, Only Murders in the Building, or even classic whodunits, this show will definitely keep you entertained.

So, have you watched The Residence yet? If so, what did you think? Let’s chat in the comments!
