Only Murders in the Building

We all know that Steve Martin and Martin Short can combine to produce comedy gold, but who could have predicted that Steve Martin and Selena Gomez would have such incredible chemistry? Add in the wonderful Nathan Lane and now Sting (!) and after just 3 episodes I am completely hooked.

This type of lighthearted and quality comedy and show is hugely lacking in this day and age! I am really enjoying this show so far.. I think it Steve Martin and Martin Short are comedic geniuses and the banter throughout was very natural and fun. I was a bit skeptical at first because of the seemingly odd choice to cast Selena with these two classics, but it totally works! 👏

So I just finished watching Only Murders in the Building and have to say I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I originally had no intent on watching because it looked like a show aimed for people 60+ years old. I was wrong. After seeing all the great reviews and all the award nominations for both seasons I finally gave in and watched it. It's a funny who dun it kind of show. It's about three strangers who all love true crime podcasts and then all of a sudden find themselves making one of their own from a murder in their own building. These three (Selena Gomez, Steve Martin and Martin Short) start to put together the clues to find the murderer. The series has something for everyone. If you're looking for a show to just have a good time with and keep you entertained then give this a try. It's just a fun show that you can binge over a few days.

This show is a joy to watch. It's witty and light-hearted, which is exactly what we need right now. Very reminiscent of Clue.

Why is Selena Gomez in a show with a talented cast?? She just doesn't fit. She doesn't know how to act, her character is is so stiff with NO personality or emotion, and I can't stand the way she talks, she talks like her mouth has been wired shut! Also, you can hardly hear her! I feel sorry for Steve Martin & Martin Short, two great actors to have to work with someone that seems to put no effort into her character/acting. I'm, guessing she was cast in this show only because she has a huge fan base and most followed female singer on IG?? Why not give the role to someone more talented? A real comedic actress? This show could be so much better without Gomez.
