Only Murders in the Building2021

This show remains an extremely rare example of a comedy-drama that does both equally, and incredibly, well.

The best way I can describe OMITB (like NKOTB but only older) is that it's a comfort food show: consistently good and worth going back to. It's a bit of a phenomenon in that it comes out consistently every year like clockwork which doesn't happen in TV these days. It never strays from its center line which is a positive and a slight negative. It's not a socially buzzy show that you're going to get spoiled by scrolling through social media. That also makes it easy to forget months after it comes out. Still, it's a nice bottle to pull off the shelf when you need a palate cleanse. Yes, you definitely have to suspend belief at times (especially in s5), but the trio of Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez are incredibly charming and every season features unexpected guest stars who fit right in.

While Season 3 spit the trio apart as they each got pulled in their own directions, this season finds them stronger than ever. As they work together to solve this case, they bounce back and forth in hilarious and zany ways, allowing Martin, Short, and Gomez to really thrive beside one another. And they continue to elevate the series’ newest additions as well.
