In Season 4, the show travels from New York City to Los Angeles, where Charles (Martin), Oliver (Short) and Mabel (Gomez) wrestle with the shocking events at the end of Season 3 surrounding Charles’ stunt double Sazz’s Pataki (Lynch) untimely demise. Questioning whether Sazz or Charles was the intended victim, the trio’s investigation takes them cross country where a Hollywood studio is readying a film about the Only Murders podcast. As the amateur sleuths race back to New York, they embark on an even more epic journey — traversing their building’s courtyard to delve into the twisted lives of the Arconia’s West Tower residents.
Only Murders in the Building hails from co-creators and writers Martin and John Hoffman. Season 4 executive producers include Hoffman, Martin, Short, Gomez, Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal.
