SPOILER ALERT: This piece contains spoilers for the Season 5 finale episode of Only Murders in the Building. Another Arconia murder mystery has come and gone, but another dead body was found on the premises, though it could be argued that the murder was not in the building. The newest case will take the crew overseas, which Deadline first reported. Fresh on the heels of Season 5’s finale, the series was renewed for a sixth season. Read on for everything we know about Only Murders in the Building Season 6. Where will Only Murders in the Building Season 6 be set? The show’s three main New Yorkers will venture across the pond. Deadline broke the news that Season 6 may head to London, and the Season 5 finale made that connection clear. No spoilers yet, but the new murder victim has connections to the continent. (Details can be found below.) Season 4 of the cozy murder mystery comedy show spent some time in Los Angeles, marking the first alternate location. RELATED: How The ‘Three Amigos’ Reunion On ‘Only Murders In The Building’ Between Steve Martin, Martin Short & Tony Plana Came Together “London is New York’s sister city. There will be all sorts of connectors,” co-creator John Hoffman told Deadline. “We will take our storytelling and steep it into this new culture and our trio will be fish in new waters.” Hoffman also clarified that London will be the sole setting. How many episodes will be in Season 6 of Only Murders in the Building? Season 6 will consist of 10 episodes. Whose murder was the subject of Season 5 of Only Murders in the Building? Arconia doorman Lester (Teddy Coluca) was the murder victim whose death was brought justice in Season 5. Who killed Lester in Season 5 of Only Murders in the Building? And who killed Nicky Caccimelio? Spoilers ahead! If you haven’t finished Season 5 yet, turn back. Mayor Beau Tillman (Keegan-Michael Key) turned out to be the murderer. He killed Lester to protect his trio of billionaire friends Camilla White (Renée Zellweger), Bash Steed (Christoph Waltz) and Jay Pflug (Logan Lerman) and their plans for the casino in the basement of the Arconia.

Who is the murder victim for Season 6 of Only Murders in the Building? Tina Fey’s Cinda Canning, or someone who looks a lot like her plus a red curly-haired wig, returned for the Season 5 finale as the next victim. Technically she died at the gates of the Arconia. “The character of Cinda started everything, so we’re going back to the beginning. So the nature of what she’s doing, what she is doing over in England, doing this thing now, why? I got to know more about it,” Hoffman said. “It’s an opportunity to tease something that opens up a whole new mystery in the home of the cozy murder mystery, which felt very exciting.”
