What to Watch What to Watch on Tuesday: A killer trio in murder mystery comedy Only Murders in the Building Also, Marie Kondo is back to tidy up some more in the new Netflix series Sparking Joy. By EW Staff Published on August 31, 2021 08:06AM EDT Only Murders in the Building HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: Streaming on Hulu Series DebutAs summer ends, a Manhattan murder mystery begins. Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez star in this compelling Hulu who-dun-it as three co-op tenants who join forces to investigate a suspicious death in their building. And what kind of search for justice would this be if they didn't record a podcast about their adventures along the way? Ask co-creator John Hoffman to sum up the twisty ride that is Only in the Murders and he's on the case: "The story encapsulates what I would refer to as 'Everything New York,' " he offers. "And that would mean if you took a 10-block walk in New York, you would find yourselves laughing at something you saw. You'd find yourself awed by the beauty of some old classic building next to some modern thing that's incredible going up right next to it. You would find yourself intrigued by some interaction you encountered. You would feel probably a little scared, a little bit like, 'Oh God, what's happening? I don't know what that person is doing over there.' And then all of a sudden you'll find yourself in the middle of Times Square and some Broadway brassy number that's happening, promoting some show coming up. That whole world, through the characters we have and through the story we're telling — all wrapped in a true-crime mystery that hopefully really does pay off — is all very New York to me. It's a love letter to New York and a love letter to the stars who are in it." —Dan Snierson Related content: Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, and Martin Short play sleuth in Only Murders in the Building sneak peek Steve Martin, Selena Gomez, and Martin Short clue you in on their new Hulu mystery comedy Only Murders in the Building: EW review Sparking Joy With Marie Kondo HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: Streaming on Netflix Series DebutAfter helping people around the world tidy up their lives, by keeping the things that spark joy in her lives, Marie Kondo is back with a new Netflix series all about that — even taking viewers into her own how to see how she applies her method to her own life.
