The Afterparty

If you are a fan of the incredible series featuring Martin Short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomez, you would probably agree that shows like Only Murders in the Building are hard to find, but hear this out: murder at a high school reunion? Now this is a premise that can keep you glued to your screen as you binge-watch the mystery unravel.
With two compelling seasons to devour, it’s a classic whodunnit with the unique flavor of the celebrated filmmaker, Christopher Miller.

Psych

Eight seasons of a young guy with an eidetic memory pretending to have psychic abilities to help solve crimes? I am seated with a bowl full of popcorn already.
Declared the most-watched new show on basic cable with 6.1 million viewers, Psych was an instant hit after its premiere in 2006. Displaying the true meaning of friendship, the duo of Shaun and Gus navigate through absurd situations while maintaining the facade of psychic abilities and helping the Santa Barbara Police Department in solving crimes using keen powers of observation to crack cases.
The show also has three films released under its name, making it a popular franchise.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

A fan favorite, the show is set in New York’s 99th Precinct, a rather chaotic place, with even more chaotic officers. The main leads include Detective Jake Peralta a “child trapped in a man’s body”, alongside Amy Santiago an officer who is all brains, with a robotically determined yet sarcastic Captain Holt. Other significant characters include the gentle giant Sergeant Terry, the hopeless romantic Charles, and the intimidating Rosa all of who make the show a hilarious and heartwarming take on police life and crime-solving.
As a crime comedy show, there is no one story and no major crime. It is more about the characters, however, each episode is an adventure for its audience. The series has an ensemble cast who all can time their jokes perfectly, which makes it a close twin to Only Murders in the Building with a hint of drama shared between the characters.

One can watch the show on Netflix and see how it introduces its audience to a new story in a familiarly fun way over eight seasons while also keeping up with the witty dialogues that are easy to enjoy.

Veronica Mars

With an IMDB rating of 8.4, College drama collides with mystery in this thrilling tale of an affluent yet troubled town where Veronica Mars along with her detective dad solves crime.
Balancing her mundane life and her duties as a detective after a series of personal and community losses headed by the murder of her best friend, Veronica begins to solve local crimes using her sharp mind and exceptional investigation skills. Astonished by baffling cases that come her way, she continues to uncover the truth while dealing with the secrets of the town she lives in.
Due to its immense fanbase, the cult classic returned for a fourth season in a similar high school reunion setting as Only Murders in the Building. This comeback was made on Hulu in 2019, 16 years after the show had originally ended, leaving fans delighted.

Final Thoughts

The list is not long and most of these movies are not famous for spreading viral quotes and lines because of their lighthearted nature but are full of joy, fun, and a great mystic thriller tale. If you like one of the shows on this list, you’re guaranteed to like another one because each and every one of them is a gem that has something special to offer.

Thus, sit comfortably, get your favorite snacks, and be prepared to dive into these great TV series binges. Every series is going to provide the right amount of mystery and humor which will help in bearing the wait for the next season of ‘Only Murders in the Building’.
