If you know who Ryan Hansen is, you’ll find Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television pretty amusing

The Hollywood Reporter

The YouTube Red series starring the former Veronica Mars star is, says Daniel Fienberg, “a bloated and sloppy and amateurish in a way that occasionally rises to the level of "gleeful," but it's occasionally hilarious and delivers a much more scathing, granular and detailed satire of the television business and Hollywood fame than the facile yuks of Showtime's departed, overpraised Episodes. If anything, Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television is too inside baseball and too far up its own butt, but if you're a small screen obsessive, there's definitely amusement in this industry “
