Convert JSON String To C# Object

Trying to convert a JSON string into an object in C#. Using a really simple test case:

JavaScriptSerializer json_serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
object routes_list = json_serializer.DeserializeObject("{ \"test\":\"some data\" }");

The problem is that routes_list never gets set; it's an undefined object. Any ideas?

Using dynamic object with JavaScriptSerializer.

JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer(); 
dynamic item = serializer.Deserialize<object>("{ \"test\":\"some data\" }");
string test= item["test"];

//test Result = "some data"
