Investigation returns to center
In this new episode, the narrative focuses almost entirely on investigations and talks about darker edgeswhile episode 3×05 the focus was on the emotional relationship of the trio members, which allowed us to understand something more about the vision of the couple relationship of our main characters.
All events take place in theater in which the performance of the director was to be staged olivers, Death rattle. Between legends about ghosts harboring the building and the emergence of new characters with important information about the murder Ben Glenroy (Paul Rudd), there’s room for a character too Howard Morris (Michael Cyril Creightons). By staying in the background for five episodes, he too takes part in the dynamics of the investigation, and also reveals to us a different side of himself that we, the viewers, can add to the puzzle of his character characteristics that has begun to take shape in the series. second season.
The setting of the theater and the mysteries associated with the ghosts that inhabit it make everything even more intriguing and bring us back to the main theme of the season, focused specifically on the world of entertainment.

Against each other, a trio in crisis
What is the relationship between the three main characters? Only murders in the building were less relaxed than in the previous two seasons, it was clear from the first episode, but in “Ghostlight” we have the first real direct conflict.
Let’s focus on Oliver, who never, until the sixth series, did not want to take part in the investigation. He only focused on Death rattle. He decides to investigate with Charles AND Mabel when the suspicion creeps up on him that Loretta (Meryl Streep), the woman he’s in love with and the main character in a new version of his show, is hiding something connected to the crime.
In fact olivers, instead of finding out the truth, he just wants to put this whole story behind him, convince himself that the real culprit has already been arrested, and move on to see the show through. For this reason, he even performs a very controversial act that brings him into a violent conflict with two friends.
Charles after the events of the previous two series is completely shocked and confused. It’s also useless for the investigative side though Mabel she is clearly tired of dealing with the silliness of the two older members of the trio, who in this new story appear to be very selfish, self-referential, lethargic and uninteresting in what goes on outside of their problems.
For the girl who wants to know the truth and sees the investigation as a way out of the dangers of her life, still lacking a clear direction; the two are no longer an asset, but have almost become a burden. The real help in the investigation was played by the character Selena Gomez gets it from Tobert (Jesse William) a boy with a personality that is still not entirely recognizable and that seems to be hiding something.
Thanks to the faster pace and the fact that thereinvestigative element be at the center of everything 35 minutes that make it up this sixth series is one of the most interesting (if not the most interesting) among those released so far.

The sixth episode of the third season of the yellow comedy Only Murders in the Building, due to its dark atmosphere and theatrical production, is the most interesting this season and by far the most exciting and with the most dynamic narrative. The investigative element is finally at the center of the episode and continues, albeit punctuated by hilarious moments and gimmicks, throughout the thirty-five minutes that make up the episode. What’s more, after five episodes, we finally witnessed the first real showdown between our three main characters, who had something to say to each other that’s still hidden.
