Only Murders in the Building actor Steve Martin has expressed his disappointment over co-star Selena Gomez's Emmy snub. Martin, Gomez, and Martin Short lead the Hulu mystery-comedy series as an unlikely group of friends and true crime aficionados who come together to create a podcast investigating a suspicious death in their Upper West Side apartment building. In Only Murders in the Building season 2, which began streaming on June 28, the trio is looking into the murder of Bunny (Jayne Houdyshell), the Arconia's tough-as-nails board president who was found dead in Mabel's (Gomez) apartment. On Monday, Hulu renewed Only Murders in the Building for season 3.
Besides being Hulu's most-watched comedy series, Only Murders in the Building has also received widespread admiration from fans and critics alike. Things like the charming chemistry of the central trio and the show's hilarious and witty approach to true crime are adored by audiences, and it is for these reasons that Only Murders in the Building earned 17 nominations for the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards, including in the Outstanding Comedy Series category. Both Martin and Short landed acting nods for their performances, while Nathan Lane and Jane Lynch scored nominations for their guest roles. Shockingly, Gomez was the only one of the three leads who was left out of the nominations list, sparking fan outrage and criticism.
