Our favorite true-crime podcast trio are back on the case…again!

Today, the first episode of the highly anticipated Only Murders in the Building season four has premiered on Hulu. And to say that I am excited would be an understatement. You see, that bombshell season three finale left OMITB fans (myself included) with a myriad of burning questions. Just as a refresher: Sazz (played by Jane Lynch) was killed by a sniper rifle while fetching a bottle of wine from Charles’s apartment. In a not-so-surprising turn of events, viewers learn that someone was trying to kill Charles (Steve Martin), but shot Sazz by mistake. So, who was trying to kill Charles? And why?

What Is Only Murders in the Building Season 4 About?

Unlike previous seasons, one out of three Only Murders in the Building podcasters—Charles, Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Selena Gomez)—are now at the center of a new murder mystery. This time around, the Arconia residents have left the Big Apple for sunny California, where Paramount Pictures is turning their true-crime podcast into a motion picture. Now, we have a new killer, new faces and a new setting. And dare I say, this may be the best season of Only Murders yet. 

I watched the first episode of Only Murders in the Building season four and…I have a lot of thoughts. Keep reading for my honest review.
