'Only Murders in the Building' is Back with a Bang, here are all the updates
Following the success of the first season, Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, and Martin Short are back in the investigation business with the second season of 'Only Murders in the Building’.

After successfully solving the murder case in the first adventure, the trio of Charles, Oliver, and Mabel now focus on another neighbourhood death to turn up. This time around, we have new cameos to add up more flavour and thrill to the proceedings. So we have Amy Schumer as Amy Schumer, who quickly adapts to the storyline to deliver a strong performance.
The new season lived up to the expectations as it smartly plays to its strengths. Our new investigators find themselves entangled in a new mystery in this second season, which has a cliffhanger ending. The entire season has an undertone of refreshment and fun.
Being quirky consistently is quite demanding and challenging. However, the second season of 'Only Murders in the Building’ beautifully delivers on that. Key highlights of this are shifting narrators, Jane Lynch performing his stunt double, the relentless podcaster of Tina Fey, and a new albeit embarrassing role for Charles.
Contrary to what many might expect, the mystery is not really the core element of the show. The most memorable moments of the series actually come from odd moments. Take for example the famous delivery of a tribute to the movie "Last of the Mohicans" from Short, while he is confined in a stairwell. The story moves forward with several clues and revelations. While it is not as convincing as the previous season, the new season still offers much to stand out on its own.
