'Only Murders in the Building' Season 4: Release date, time, cast, where to watch mystery comedy

Arconia's chaotic murder-solving trio is almost back, and they just can't seem to catch a break.

In Season 4 of Hulu's Emmy-nominated "Only Murders in the Building," Mabel, Charles and Oliver are heading to Los Angeles, where a Hollywood studio is making plans to turn their podcast into a film, while dealing with the shocking murder of Charles' stunt double and friend Sazz Pataki.

Pataki was in Charles' apartment, grabbing a bottle of wine to celebrate Oliver's Broadway show’s successful opening night, when a bullet shot through the window and hit her in the chest. Just as she's taking her last breaths, Pataki starts to write something on the kitchen floor with her blood, before the screen cuts to black.

Still left with questions about the death of stunt double Sazz and if the murderer actually meant to take out Charles instead, the trio race back to New York to continue their amateur sleuthing and "even more epic journey - traversing their building's courtyard to delve into the twisted lives of the Arconia's West Tower residents," says Hulu about the new season.

Here's what to know about "Only Murders in the Building" Season 4 including the release date, cast and trailer.
