The publicity team for “Little Murders” deserves an award because this show has been inescapable these past few weeks. Originally premiering in 1967, “Little Murders” is a satirical riff on the American family. Also playing this week is “Laughter on the 23rd Floor,” which details the antics of a 1950s star and his ambitious staff. Both run until Oct. 25.
