How Many Episodes In Murder In The Building

Okay, Let's Talk Murder (and Episode Counts)

So, we're all obsessed with Murder in the Building, right? The hilarious trio, the mysteries, the Upper West Side vibes...chef's kiss!

But here's a question that's been nagging me: Are the seasons the perfect length? Or are they...too short?

Season 1: The OG Mystery

Season one gave us 10 episodes. Ten episodes to fall in love with Charles, Oliver, and Mabel.

Ten episodes to unravel the Tim Kono mystery. Ten episodes felt...right? Or did it?

Maybe a couple more episodes delving into the Arconia's quirky residents would have been fun. Just saying!

Season 2: More Secrets, Same Building

Season two also delivered ten episodes. Ten more chances to admire Mabel's outfits (major style goals!).

Ten episodes to get invested in Bunny Folger's murder. Ten episodes featuring Amy Schumer being...herself.

Again, I enjoyed it. But I secretly wished for more time with these characters. Am I alone here?

Season 3: Curtain Up on a New Case!

Yep, you guessed it, season three keeps the trend with, you guessed it, ten episodes! This time, focusing on the death of Ben Glenroy. It also delivers a new set of quirky characters and potential suspects.

We get to see Meryl Streep sing and act. Paul Rudd's dead body is the starting point. It's a great season.

Ten episodes feel enough, but what if there were 12? Just to have a little bit more fun?

My Unpopular Opinion: More Episodes, Please!

Look, I know some people think less is more. They believe in tight storytelling and avoiding filler.

I get it. I appreciate a well-paced plot. But with Murder in the Building, I just crave more of that cozy, funny, mysterious world.

Imagine a season with 12 or even 13 episodes! We could spend more time exploring the Arconia's history.

Maybe dive deeper into the backstories of the supporting characters. Picture a whole episode dedicated to Uma Heller's cat!

The Counterargument (Because There Always Is One)

Of course, adding more episodes could dilute the plot. It could lead to unnecessary subplots and drag the story.

No one wants a season that feels bloated or boring. We want sharp writing and engaging mysteries.

But I trust the creators of Murder in the Building. I believe they could handle a longer season without sacrificing quality.

The Verdict: Give Us More Arconia!

Ultimately, I think Murder in the Building is fantastic as it is. The ten-episode format works...mostly.

However, a part of me will always wonder what a longer season would be like. More mysteries, more laughs, more time with our favorite podcasting trio.

So, what do you think? Am I crazy for wanting more episodes? Or are you secretly hoping for a 12-episode season too? Let me know!

Just picture it: an extra episode where Oliver tries to direct a community theater production of Cats...with disastrous (and hilarious) results. I need this in my life.
