Only Murders in the Building season 5

from Crime Writers On... · host Partners in Crime Media

Podcasters Charles, Oliver and Mabel are shocked to find a severed finger in a platter of shrimp cocktail! Is it connected to the suspicious death of their doorman? Or their search for a missing dry-cleaning mobster? The investigation takes a turn when they uncover a secret casino hidden beneath the Arconia. The gaming room contains a card table with a cleaver-shaped gash and is frequented by a trio of billionaires, one who’s missing a finger. But as they dig deeper into the mystery, stories don’t add up, the podcast is muzzled, and the killer remains even more elusive. Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez return for season five of Hulu’s Emmy-winning “Only Murders in the Building.” Television’s fictional favorite true crime podcast team looks into yet another death - or two - in the Arconia. The cast of suspects includes a mob widow, a crooked politician, the world’s richest people, and a robot. This time the crew learns the residents aren’t the real target - it’s the building itself. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING" SEASON FIVE BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
