Only Murders in the Building Renewed for Season 2; HBO Max's Love Life New Season Starts Oct. 28

Only Murders in the Building, the hit Hulu Original comedy series starring Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez has been picked up for a second season. Only Murders in the Building debuted as the most-watched Hulu Original comedy on premiere day and also the most-watched comedy on premiere day across all SVOD titles ever on the platform.

From the minds of Steve Martin, Dan Fogelman and John Hoffman comes a comedic murder-mystery series for the ages. Only Murders in the Building follows three strangers (Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) who share an obsession with true crime and suddenly find themselves wrapped up in one. When a grisly death occurs inside their exclusive Upper West Side apartment building, the trio suspects murder and employs their precise knowledge of true crime to investigate the truth. As they record a podcast of their own to document the case, the three unravel the complex secrets of the building which stretch back years. Perhaps even more explosive are the lies they tell one another. Soon, the endangered trio comes to realize a killer might be living amongst them as they race to decipher the mounting clues before it’s too late. Only Murders in the Building hails from co-creators and writers Steve Martin and John Hoffman (Grace & Frankie, Looking). Martin and Hoffman executive produce along with Martin Short, Selena Gomez, Jamie Babbitt, This Is Us creator Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal. A new episode dropped yesterday in which Mabel slips away on a solo mission tracking the victim’s final days. Suspicious, Charles and Oliver follow her. Only Murders in the Building is the latest series to join Hulu's acclaimed slate of original comedies including such award-winning series such as Ramy, Pen15, Shrill and The Great, among others.
