Is Only Murders in the Building on Netflix? (where to stream it)

Only Murders in the Building is one of the most popular and acclaimed Hulu Originals of the past few years. The the Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated series from co-creators Steve Martin and John Hoffman has already aired three seasons and a fourth one on the way.

Besides netting a great cast for its series regular roles in Martin Short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomez, the crime dramedy has also previously nabbed other big stars like Meryl Streep, Paul Rudd, Nathan Lane, and more.

Only Murders in the Building is streaming on Hulu

You can watch all three seasons of Only Murders in the Building right now by signing up for a subscription to Hulu.

1. Head to the Hulu homepage and create an account
2. Choose your plan (Hulu, Hulu with no ads, or Hulu + Live TV)
3. Enter your payment method to finalize your account
4. Begin watching Only Murders in the Building

In addition to the monthly Hulu-specific plans above, the streamer also offers bundles if you're interested in saving some money by getting various bundles involving Disney+ and ESPN+ (but without the Live TV). More information on Hulu's bundles and plans here.

Currently, Hulu doesn't offer any other way to watch Only Murders in the Buildings beyond getting a subscription to the service, meaning you cannot purchase or rent the season through other retailers. If you're only interested in watching the comedy series, I recommend just getting the basic Hulu plan for $7.99/month, which is a great bargain to watch all 30 episodes. If you can afford it, getting the ad-free plan is also nice, but not necessary, unless you're pressed for time.

Season 4 is expected to air later this year

We don't have any concrete information on when the newest season of the show will be released, but given that previous seasons have all come out in the summer, it seems like a good guess to expect season 4 will follow suit and be released mid-to-late summer 2024.

Besides the main cast, season 4 has also recruited a roster of talented stars such as Eva Longoria, Eugene Levy, and Molly Shannon. Additionally, Meryl Streep will return as Loretta Durkin!

Only Murders in the Building awards and reviews

Only Murders in the Building was a hit from the start and has easily become one of Hulu's most successful original series. Since debuting in 2021, the show has racked up over 25 Emmy nominations and 12 Golden Globe nominations, which is pretty impressive.

Also impressive is the fact that it has received near-unanimous praise from critics for each of its three seasons. All of them have been rated Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with an approval score above 95. The highest-rated season was season 1, but seasons 2 and 3 were both heavily acclaimed.

"Martin and Short are in great form, and Gomez meets them beat for beat – the chemistry is delightful. Add a lashing of Wes Anderson-lite cinematography, and you’ve got yourself a winner."

The addition of Meryl Streep last season (amid some rumors she might be dating the show's leading man Martin Short) has been an added bonus, with critics praising her comedic timing and overall chemistry with the cast. Given that she's set to return for season 4, we cannot wait to see what's next for these characters!
