Netflix’s light-hearted mystery series The Residencebrought plenty of intrigue to the White House in season 1, but will the show score a season 2 renewal soon? Created for the small screen by Paul William Davies, The Residence follows Cordelia Cupp (Uzo Aduba), a private consultant for the DC Metro Police Department who is brought in to solve a murder that took place during the State Dinner in the White House. Featuring a massive ensemble cast, The Residence tells a classic whoddunit story with a modern screwball comedy sensibility.
