📖 Plot Summary

“Marvin Flute may be the greatest detective ever to catch a cannibal clown or correctly identify a mid-century modern armoire.”

But solving crimes is the easy part. The real puzzle? His own personal life.

After years away, Marvin returns to the oddball town of Grimsburg, where nearly everyone is hiding something bizarre. There, he’s determined to win back the respect of his ex-wife Harmony, reconnect with his estranged son Stan, and maybe—just maybe—become the man and father he should’ve been all along.

Each episode features absurdly twisted mysteries, outrageous suspects, and Marvin’s offbeat attempts at redemption—all wrapped in satirical noir and surreal humor.



🧩 Why Watch Grimsburg?

  • Dark yet quirky humor that blends true crime parody with heartfelt character arcs

  • Unique animation style reminiscent of Family Guy and Archer, but with its own flavor

  • Jon Hamm delivers a hilariously dry and emotional performance as Marvin

  • Episodes are short and punchy (~22 minutes), perfect for binge-watching

  • Critically praised for blending family dysfunction and noir tropes with satire
