Only Murders in the Building has jumped the shark.

The quirkiness has turned to stupidity. It's boring, and we're done. (Still casually interested in knowing who the latest killer is, but that can be googled later.)

It's a shame, because the stars are so great. Writers must have run out of ideas.

JMHO.

I’m not even up to date. But, the episode after they visit the other wing starts to feel chaotic- and not in a good way. Seemed to me there was too much chaos and not enough focus on a great story. Talent galore but a poor script?!

6. Agree. Selena Gomez has always talked slowly and in a flat monotone but it is worse this season. She seems bored

too.

I love Martin Short and Steve Martin and they have some good guest cameos, but, yeah, the show is just boring. I quit after episode 1 thinking I might go back to it, but...

7. She does seem bored. I know she's had health issues so we cut her a lot of slack,

10. I think few shows can last more than 5 years. There are only so many stories to tell with
