A show about a podcast about a murder that’s only available to stream online, and stars two elderly comedians of yesteryear doesn’t sound like the recipe for a hit – yet Only Murders in the Building delivers its premise in one of the most fun and addictive series ever.
In the show, Hotel Arconia residents Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Selena Gomez) form an unlikely trio of amateur detectives and podcast producers who are hellbent on solving the mystery of their neighbours’ (that’s one neighbour per season – this whole murder thing is catching on) untimely death.
