“Only Murders in the Building”, Season 5

Don’t be scared by Only murders in the building make a West Coast stop in Season 4 because the podcasters will not be separated from their building or murder for long. The question is, will Only murders renewed for season 5, or is that it? Here's what we know.

When Only murders in the building Premiering in 2021, a slightly claustrophobic crime thriller that made us laugh was the perfect thing. After everything we had all been through in 2020 without really go everywhereYou didn't have to live in an Upper West Side apartment complex to identify with characters who meddle a little too much in their neighbors' affairs.

Since that explosive first season, the momentum has never waned. In fact, I'm still humming “Which of the Pickwick Triplets Made It” from the third musical season. It feels lofty these days to even dream of a show lasting longer than four seasons, so why am I feeling hopeful about this one?

Well, *is* Only murders in the building is it coming back for season 5?

There is no official statement from Hulu yet. I hope this statement does not bring bad luck, but Only murders feels like one of the few sure things in show business these days. Given pandemic precautions and WGA and SAG strikes, it's a miracle that this show has consistently come out with a new season every summer since 2021. And With new episodes coming out every week, we'll be talking about the show for months, trying to solve the mystery. We can only hope it continues until 2025.

What would season 5 be about?

I think we've figured out by now that the premise is in the title. It would be about a murder in the building. Usually, the show sets up the next murder in a cliffhanger moment at the end of the previous season's finale. So we'll have a better idea of ​​what a potential season 5 will be about by the time we reach the end of season 4.

The fact that the Only murders saying something like that also makes me think (or at least hope) that if season 4 was the last season, we would already know. With finales so carefully planned, surely they know in advance when the end is. the end. You know??

Who would be there Only murders in the building Season 5?

Unless one of the three main actors actually gets murdered (can you imagine that?), I think we can expect the return of Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and Martin Short. I also think that since Meryl Streep is returning for season 4, she might stick around.

When would Only murders in the building come out?

As I said, this seems to be one of the few popular series that doesn't take two years to come out with a new season these days. (Other exceptions are TV series like law and order or NCIS: Secret Service Storiesas well as Abbott Elementary School, The bear and until recently 9-11.) There is little reason to believe that the series, assuming it returns for Season 5, would not premiere next year. Seasons 1, 3 and 4 all premiered in August. Season 2 premiered in June, so it is safe to assume that a hypothetical Only murders in the building Season 5 will return in August 2025, if not sooner.
