The Guardian Leila Latif

In the third season, the show is more committed to fun, taking every opportunity to slip in a witty retort or a Bob Fosse-style musical number. The central trio are at their finest. Read full review

While season three’s premiere is jam-packed with nuggets about the case, it never loses focus away from the comedy. The one-liners and banter continue to flow smoothly between Charles, Mabel, and Oliver. [The score is the average of the grades for the first two episodes.] Read full review

To put it simply, this season of Only Murders in the Building manages to keep the parts of the show we love locked down without being a carbon copy of the seasons that came before it. Read full review

Obviously, Only Murders… will be too soft-core/fluffy for some, but it manages to remind everyone that TV crime doesn’t have to mean 24/7 gritty realism and thinly veiled torture porn. If the murders are markedly less alarming than the jazz hands, that’s all part of the charm. Read full review

This season, the friendships are fractured — or at least, not quite front and center the way they once were. But Oliver remains such a deeply moving figure. This might be one of Short’s best performances of his career, balancing so many ideas and tones at once. Read full review

If the new season isn’t as funny as it should be — don’t get me started on various characters brought back from earlier seasons with diminishing returns — and it isn’t as mysterious as it could be, why is it still entertaining enough for a tepid recommendation? Because, as I said up top, it plays effectively as drama. Read full review

The first eight (of ten) episodes of Only Murders in the Building Season 3 left me feeling decidedly “meh.” Sure, you can’t really snub your nose at Meryl Streep bantering with Martin Short — even I have to admit that watching the show’s stars collide is worth the price of admission — but the storytelling kept letting me down.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everyone who joins the cast each season is a delight to see. Paul Rudd is absolutely gold as the victim.… Expand
