Trivia / Murderville

• Corpsing: Due to the show's improvisational nature, Will, the guest and even the cast will occasionally break.
  • "The Magician's Assistant":
    • When having the Sloppy Jalapeñ-joes, Will is clearly trying not to laugh as he's squirting more and more hot sauce onto Conan's plate.
    • The actress playing Kathy turns her head to avoid cracking-up on camera after Conan claims he was bullied by Dianne Feinstein as a child.
    • Conan himself breaks multiple times, most obviously in the interrogation scene, when Terry has an unrealistically shocked reaction to seeing a card trick.
  • "Most Likely to Commit Murder": When Kumail is doing his "stupid walk", Will Arnett hides his laughter behind a fist. Will also chuckles appreciatively when Kumail challenges him to do an impression of a Pakistani without being racist.
  • "Murder By Soup": In a scene where they've both been captured, Annie Murphy seems genuinely surprised to discover that Will Arnett doesn't have his hands tied.
  • "The Cold Case": Ken Jeong can't go more than five minutes without breaking because of something funny or being nervous. It gets called out a few times.
  • The actual corpses break at least twice. When Kumail pulls the note from the corpse's mouth, he's smiling. In the Sharon Stone episode, the corpse is clearly smiling in half the shots where Will and Sharon mess with him.
    • Seen extensively in "Who Killed Santa?" as the victim (played by Sean Hayes) is featured in multiple scenes, including one where his body has to be puppeteered by the cops, Weekend at Bernie's-style. He is seen cracking up several times.
