With the recent trend of sharing streaming exclusives on linear networks, Disney has announced that the first season of “Only Murders In The Building” will air on ABC in January 2024. 
The addition of this drama series to ABC will help fill the void caused by the loss of scripted content like “Abbott Elementary” and “Grey’s Anatomy” because of the actor’s and writers’ strikes.
The series follows three strangers (Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) who share an obsession with true crime and suddenly find themselves wrapped up in one. When a grisly death occurs inside their exclusive Upper West Side apartment building, the trio suspects murder and employs their precise knowledge of true crime to investigate the truth. As they record a podcast of their own to document the case, the three unravel the complex secrets of the building, which stretch back years. Perhaps even more explosive are the lies they tell one another. Soon, the endangered trio comes to realize a killer might be living amongst them as they race to decipher the mounting clues before it’s too late.

The series will air on Tuesdays in January, with the first three episodes debuting on Tuesday, 2nd January 2024, following a new semifinal episode of “Celebrity Jeopardy!” (8:00-9:00 p.m. EST), returning in 2024 on its new night.

The airdate schedule for the 10-episode season of “Only Murders in the Building” is as follows (all times listed are Eastern/Pacific):

  • Tuesday, Jan. 2, 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Episodes 1-3)
  • Tuesday, Jan. 9, 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Episodes 4-6)
  • Tuesday, Jan. 16, 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Episodes 7-9)
  • Tuesday, Jan. 23, 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (Episode 10)

Recently renewed for a fourth season, “Only Murders In The Building” is the most-viewed Hulu Original comedy series ever. The show’s first season hails from co-creators and writers Steve Martin and John Hoffman (“Grace & Frankie,” “Looking”). Martin and Hoffman executive produce along with Martin Short, Selena Gomez, Jamie Babbit, “This Is Us” creator Dan Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal.  The series is produced by 20th Television, a part of Disney Television Studios.
