Synopsis

Trillo and Suede are a ventriloquist and dummy detective duo. Based in Brooklyn NY, they grapple with an endless array of gangsters and grifters, murderers and misfits, spies and saps, con men and cops, politicians on the take and femmes fatales on the make, as they unravel each episode’s suspense-filled mystery. Think Roger Rabbit meets The Maltese Falcon in a film noir neo-1940’s alternate universe. It’s film noir through the eyes of the Marx Brothers. It’s Charlie Chan meets Charlie McCarthy; Philip Marlowe meets the Muppets; Humphrey Bogart meets Edgar Bergen,except that Suede is tougher than Bogie, and Trillo (as played by real-life ventriloquist Jonathan Geffner) is a better ventriloquist than Edgar Bergen.
