If you loved Only Murders in the Building, here are shows that will have you equally tickled with tension Unless you've been living under a rock, you’ve surely heard of the cultural phenomenon that is Only Murders in the Building! Now in its 4th season, the series created a niche with its unique blend of suspense and wit. The show revolves around three bumbling residents of a New York building played by Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. The trio share a common passion for true crime and collaborate to turn unlikely podcasters when they chance upon a murder that takes place in, yes, you guessed it, their building. Now, this premise of a failed theatre director, a forgotten actor and a young artist trying to crack murders organically renders situations and circumstances that lead to hilarity. But the true essence of this genre, which borders on cosy mysteries, is that while the characters and their idiosyncrasies may keep matters light, their actions can have serious and real consequences. So while our trio meddle into matters and heckle their list of suspects in every season, hoping to inch closer to the truth, they are also inflicted by real and imminent danger as the murderer in question does everything in their power to eliminate them and conceal his/her identity and motive behind the heinous crime.
