This story includes spoilers for the Only Murders in the Building season 4 finale. As soon as Only Murders in the Building revealed that the fourth season of its true-crime spoof would be a send-up of the film industry, there was only ever one logical choice for who would be the killer. Hulu's hit comedy starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez spent its fourth season on a long winding path that followed two sets of celebrity guest-star suspects for the murder of Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch): the crew behind the fictional Only Murders in the Building: The Movie, and the working-class Westies in the Arconia's West Tower. However, by the final episodes, it became clear that the murder was truly a horrific tale of Hollywood ambition, as the Westies were proven innocent of the murder of Professor Dudenoff (Griffin Dunne).
So, who killed Sazz, and how did our intrepid podcasting trio take the killer down in the OMITB finale? And, more importantly, who's the victim of season 5's upcoming murder mystery? Read on for a breakdown of the ending of Only Murders in the Building season 4.
