Meurtres dans l'immeuble en solo

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.

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.

When the initial episodes of 'Only Murders in the Building' started raking in 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, I must confess that I was skeptical that Steve Martin and co could keep up the quirky fun nature of this comedy-thriller series till the last episode.

But Martin Short, Selena Gomez and him form an unlikely yet rambunctious trio who keep us hooked and entertained till the very last episode of this brilliantly written, infectiously funny series.

Steve Martin and a fantastic Martin Short star as a pair of geriatric has-been performers who run into a young gild (Gomez) who also happens to be a fellow murder podcast fanatic. How this rag-tag trio come together to solve a strange murder that takes place in their apartment forms the rest of this story.

Although some comedy-investigative series' have had huge fan bases like Monk (2002-09) and Psych (2006-14) this genre has always been a tightrope walk that most creators shy away from.

Finding humor in the most unlikeliest of places and filled with unexpected twists and turns and a host of delectable supporting characters, it is no surprise that Steve Martin was also one of the creative geniuses behind the writing of this work.

Leaving us on a tantalizing knife-edge with a cliffhanger climax, I cannot wait for Season 2. Well worth the 100% Rotten Tomatoes rating. An immensely bingeable, suspenseful, laugh riot!

Highly recommended!

Absolutely loved this show for the first two seasons, was such a fun comfort watch, perfect for autumn and also interesting and funny. Season 3 then was a bit off but I still enjoyed it. Season 4 was a trainwreck, it's likely they completely forgot the shows core and they turned it into something awful. Season 5 is back to its roots and I'm loving it! I only just started season 5 the other day because I thought I was done with it and now I'm caught up already. Hope there's a season 6.

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.
