“Only Murders in the Building” has been one of my favorite comfort watches ever since I streamed the first season, and my excitement has stayed just as high waiting for season 5. Having seen these new episodes early, I can confidently say it doesn’t disappoint once again, and I’m convinced this is one of those shows that will never get old.
As a quick refresher, season 4 concluded with the discovery of the Arconia's doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), dead in the courtyard fountain. The finale also introduced a new character, Sofia Caccimelio (Téa Leoni), who reaches out to Charles (Steve Martin) about her missing husband, a crime kingpin. This is an element that plays a major role in season 5.
