PREMISE OF ‘ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING’
‘Only Murders in the Building’ is the brainchild of comedian Steve Martin and the multi-talented John Hoffman. The duo blended together two very essential media products of the 21st century, true crime murder mysteries and comedy, to create a vibrant show.
‘Only Murders in the Building’ is centred around three building-mates, a former actor who starred in a detective drama (Steve Martin), a faltering Broadway director (Martin Short) and a young woman who is revamping her aunt’s apartment (Selena Gomez.) The three neighbours get inspired to start a true-crime podcast after a gruesome murder occurs in their building.
Has anyone else been watching Only Murders in the Building on Disney+? It’s been a surprise hit for me. Fun and fanciful with a charming cast who make me want to check in with them on the regular for more sleuthing and snooping around the show’s madcap mysteries.

While the show is dealing with death and blood, it also has laughter and satire. The final result is weirdly comforting, making it the perfect autumn watch.
‘ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING’ CAST

They are so well charted out that Buzzfeed could make a personality quiz for you to guess which character from ‘Only Murders in the Building’ you are. For a show that requires such delicate balancing of satire and seriousness, mystery and comedy, the choice of sensible and effective casting was crucial, which ‘Only Murders in the Building’ has nailed.
‘ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING’: ALL ABOUT SEASON 2

The question now remains, what release date can we expect for ‘Only Murders in the Building’ Season 2? Season 1 was conceptualized in January 2020 and wrapped up filming after a four-month period in April 2021. The show finally aired on August 31, 2021. Given that Season 2’s pre-production will take a few weeks to take off and the filming and post-production another six to nine months, it seems unlikely that ‘Only Murders in the Building’ will release its Season 2 anytime before the second half of 2022.
