What Will 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 4 Be About?
More mysteries and hilarious events will be seen on 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 4.
The upcoming installment will show Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez reprising their roles in the series. They will work together to discover who killed Jane Lynch's character, Sazz Pataki.
Only Murders in the Building executive producer Jess Rosenthal told The Hollywood Reporter showrunner John Hoffman lit up at the idea of murdering Sazz.
"I immediately, it's the thing of like, if we get a chance to go more, it'll be the thing that it just started exploding ideas in my head," said Rosenthal. "So, that was thrilling. And then the second part of that was actually talking to Jane Lynch about it and saying, 'This is what we're thinking.' We had to do that pretty early, too, and that was very sweet. She was like, 'I love it.'"
Meanwhile, Hoffman said the new season of the hit series "will explore the theme of consequences."
"I think the idea of what you create is a thing you put out to the world, and sometimes you can't be prepared for the repercussions of what potentially the world does with your thing, and how they feel about it," he added.
What Happened in 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 3?
Only Murders in the Building Season 3's final episode gave viewers Sazz's final moments after she was shot. At one point, she was seen trying to write something on Charles' kitchen floor using her own blood.

She's hinting to him in episode five that she's picking up some ham radio chatter, certainly, right when she arrives in the finale, she's saying, 'Can I grab you for a few minutes? It's a little sensitive.' So, there's something on her mind and something she may know but to be found out."
