I just saw this last night for the 1st time, and I watched it TWICE! Very funny! Falk and the huge supporting cast are having so much fun w/ the material that they make this movie a pleasant way to spend an evening. It has inspired opening titles, a funny opening sequence about a series of murders (five unimportant people) that leads us to the victim (Merkle) at the center of the primary investigation. Ms. Mason is hilarious, as is Ms. Kahn! Even Ms. Fletcher registers ... the casting process all around is very-well done. The production/set design is impressive and sets the feel for the era these characters are supposed to live in. The costumes also rate high, as does the lighting and camera work. I haven't seen the 'Murder by Death' film the other reviewers reference, but this film as a stand-alone is highly worth watching.
