'Only Murders in the Building' might have been co-created by Steve Martin, but it has the feel of Woody Allen's lighter mysteries, drenched in New York-centric touches and characters as eccentric as the décor in their high-rise apartments.

"Only Murders in the Building" might have been co-created by Steve Martin, but it has the feel of Woody Allen's lighter mysteries, drenched in New York-centric touches and characters as eccentric as the décor in their high-rise apartments. Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez play the unlikely sleuths, in a Hulu series that's good fun as long as you don't over-think it.

Before long, they've teamed with a mysterious and much younger neighbor, Mabel , hatching elaborate plans to not only crack the case but to turn their findings into a true-crime podcast. The big names don't end with the central trio, attracting cameos by the likes of Tina Fey, Nathan Lane and Amy Ryan, as well as a certain rock star who happens to be one of the building's understandably wary occupants.

Martin and Short's long affiliation includes"Father of the Bride" and"The Three Amigos," but Gomez proves well matched with this veteran pair, as Mabel harbors her own secrets -- starting with how a young woman can afford to live alone in this building -- that play into the story.
