ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING SEASON 3 REVIEW
Which of the Pickwick triplets did it, or any of the other members of this star-studded cast? Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez return as Charles, Oliver, and Mabel for the third season of their comedic mystery series Only Murders in the Building, and this time, they’re going Broadway, baby. Picking up from the cliffhanger of season two, our beloved podcast detectives must unravel the mystery of the murder of Hollywood actor Ben Glenroy (Paul Rudd) on the opening night of Oliver’s directorial return to the Broadway stage. Was it Kimber Min, the show’s ingenue running a not-so-regulatory supplement business out of her dressing room? Was it Cliff NeMeo, the producer that kisses his mom on the lips (but it’s not creepy because he’s gay)? Was it Loretta Durkin, the aging actress who we’re supposed to believe is only now making her Broadway debut despite being played by the iconic Meryl Streep? Oh, and did we mention this season is a musical? Our own podcast detectives, Mindy, Frank, and Neil analyze their own murder boards to uncover the clues on whether this show should be pelted with tomatoes, or given a standing ovation. So practice your patter song, bring a tub of your favorite dip, and join us in the white room for our review.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Mindy Rast-Keenan (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)
Having grown up in Nairobi, Kenya, and being very disappointed at the lack of riding elephants her cartoons had promised her, Mindy spends the majority of her time as a film, theater, and voice over actress in the Austin, Texas area. They still give her money for being on HBO that one time, with her name in the credits spelled wrong. A nerdy geek, this award-winning actress joined One of Us figuring she’d put her summa cum laude BFA acting degree to good use…by judging other people’s acting. In the few seconds she gets to herself, Mindy bakes for charity, knits eccentric plushies, plays original RPG’s with her gamemaster husband, and spends time with her soulmate, Batman.
Frank Calvillo (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Born and raised in South Texas, Frank currently lives in Austin and has been in love with movies ever since his father showed him some Three Stooges shorts when he was five years old. Today he loves all kinds of film, regardless of era, country, budget or genre. He believes every film has an audience and is at least one person’s favorite movie. After writing for Sight & Sound and Slackerwood, he now writes for Cinapse where his increasingly random taste in all flavors of cinema (from Rashomon to Mars Attacks!) continues to thrive. His ultimate goal is to write a script for his boyhood crush, Michelle Pfeiffer.
Neil Anderson (Screener Squad)
I first got hooked on movies when I saw Star Wars at a drive-in theater as a kid. Growing up in a small, rural town meant not having access to a lot of movies. In college, that all changed. I couldn’t get enough. I love it all — flicks, films, movies, and cinema. I still have that wide-eyed wonder of that kid watching movies from the back of a pick-up truck at the drive-in.
