Only Murders in the Building

Season 1 | Season 2 |
Season 3 | Cast |

“The only silver lining to having a serial killer on the loose is the way it can unite a divided city—everyone huddling in their apartments at the same time, terrorized by the same psychopath. There’s nothing like a crisis to bring New Yorkers together.” -Oliver Putnam

Inspired by the fervor that surrounds true-crime podcasts, Only Murders in the Building is about three very different New Yorkers (with too much time on their hands) trying to solve a real crime.

The show tends to spend more time with the characters' personal lives than the actual cases. That's not a problem, since we're not exactly dealing with a group of Sherlocks. In fact, sometimes our leads investigate crime about as well as I lactate.

But that's okay, because you're not tuning to watch a trio of super sleuths. You're tuning in for the hysterical acting and masterful visual design. Only Murders in the Building is one of the few shows to gather critical acclaim as well as widespread success with viewers.
