There’s been a murder in studio one, and everyone’s a suspect. Recorded live at the Minetta Lane Theatre, a dozen Today and NBC News anchors take center stage in this hilarious radio play. First released in 1941, Murder in Studio One is a whodunit following a female private eye and her fast-talking sidekick as they reluctantly take the case of a murder in a New York radio station. Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb lead an all-star NBC News cast in the comedic mystery produced in partnership with Audible. Dateline’s Keith Morrison lends his iconic voice as the narrator. Written by Norman Corwin, Murder in Studio One has been adapted with permission from the Norman Corwin Administrative Trust.

Today show cast great but story line just ok

Great characters but I was not a great story line. Maybe if I seen it versus listened.

Mediocre story

The actors were very good, but the storyline confused me to a most severe degree.

Give me a break

A high school senior play starring all the teacher`s pets like Meathead and Gloria. Why 2 stars? Because that is a lot more than I could bear to endure but I know it required a lot of prep time to put together. How did I even download this? I hope it was an audible free-bee.

Entertaining

I’m sure this was a fun project for the Today Show cast, The plot was a little bit far fetched and confusing but it was fun to hear the morning hosts get into character.

A fun radio drama, full of suspense and style

I enjoyed all the different characters' voices!
The "tinny " piano added wonderful texture to the performance.

not worth the money they spent on it

10 minutes of introduction. hardly any plot. most universities would be embarrassed to put this on.

Great news people, not great actors

I watch the Today show every morning and was excited to listen to this performance. Unfortunately, while the cast is great at reporting the news, they’re not so great acting out a script. If I had watched the show live, it may have made more sense, but with the accents and the talking over each other, I just couldn’t follow the story. I couldn’t even finish it-15 minutes in and I was done. Sorry Today show cast, I still love you and I’ll keep watching the Today show!

Thankful it was short & free

I selected this because of the cast, but the story did not catch my interest.

really?

Why? Just why? So good they've got day jobs because they weren't made for radio theater.

Impossible to guess

This is a cheap murder mystery with clues thrown in at the last minute, making it impossible for the listener to figure out the solution to the mystery.
