‘Only Murders in the Building' Fans Celebrate After Season 5 Release Date Drops
Our favorite trio is back, and fans could not be more excited.
On Wednesday morning, the release date for the fifth season of the beloved show Only Murders in the Building starring Selena Gomez, Martin Short and Steve Martin was announced on social media. Season 5 will premiere on September 9, starting with three episodes, then new episodes every week on Hulu and Disney+.
The television series follows three neighbors, Mabel Mora (Gomez), Oliver Putman (Short) and Charles-Haden Savage (Martin), who live in the Arconia, a New York City apartment building located on the Upper West Side, and bond over their shared love of true crime podcasts. When suspicious deaths occur in their building, they decide to investigate and document their findings in their own true crime podcast.
Only Murders in the Building has been widely praised by both critics and fans. The Hulu series has a 97% Rotten Tomatoes score, and has earned an impressive 49 Emmy nominations across its first three seasons. It was officially renewed for a fifth season just a week after the fourth began airing.
After the doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), is found dead after Oliver and Loretta's wedding in the Season 4 finale, the trio refuses to believe it was an accident. Their investigation leads them to uncover a dangerous web of secrets connecting powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters and the mysterious residents of the Arconia.
With the show's continued success and a new season underway, fans have taken to social media to share their excitement—and their reactions say it all.

Kane Brown shares jaw-dropping transformation photos on social media showing dramatic fitness results
When it comes to his fitness journey, Kane Brown is making major changes. On Friday, the "Miles On It" crooner, 31, took to Instagram to share jaw-dropping before and after photos of his changing physique. "From April- August and we just getting started!" Brown captioned the post, which features a mirror selfie of himself in April next to a current photo of himself looking toned and buff. Fans were quick to share their thoughts in the comment section, some calling Brown's efforts "impressive" and "inspiring." "That's insane- teach me your ways buddy," fellow country star Chris Lane wrote. Country star Bailey Zimmerman commented, "Inspiring dawg." "Dude what are we talkinggg about," actor Taylor Lautner added. When it comes to health and wellness, Brown has been on quite the journey this year. In May, the 31-year-old country singer turned heads after he shared before and after photos of his dramatic body transformation on social media. "From April 1st on the (left) until today (right) I've been super dedicated to fitness and health. I would love others to come on this journey with me," Brown wrote in his caption on Instagram next to a muscle and 100 emojis. "Such motivation, I needed this reminder of what discipline and consistency looks like. What are some of your biggest tips? As I start my fitness journey to getting in the best shape of my life," one fan inquired. The country star isn't the only musician dedicated to making physical transformations. Jelly Roll revealed that he has dropped 200 pounds as he continues his weight-loss journey. In a video shared on X by the Tennessee Titans, the 40-year-old country star shared his latest health milestone while giving a motivational speech to the NFL team. The Nashville native is a big Titans fan and the team's head coach, Brian Callahan, invited him to speak to the players at their training camp before they hit the road for their pre-season games. During his surprise appearance at a team meeting, Jelly Roll told the Titans, "I can't get on the field," but joked that he was getting "close." "I lost 200 pounds. I told Coach I'm getting a contract if I lose another 50," the "Save Me" singer said to applause from the players and staff. During a May interview with Fox News Digital, Jelly Roll revealed the biggest challenge he faced in his battle to lose weight. "Food, man," Jelly Roll said at the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards. Jelly Roll explained that his weight loss wasn't just about his fitness, but a constant struggle with his relationship with food. "If you're really battling obesity, you got to start at the dinner table, man. The walking's great, all the other stuff's great, but you got to fight that addiction at the dinner table," he said.

The secret trick to keeping mascots like the Phillie Phanatic fresh in the summer heat
The Phillie Phanatic has a boozy little secret for surviving the dog days of summer. Vodka and water. Neat. Hold the lemon. Not for hydration. "He's a milk guy," jokes Tom Burgoyne, who brings the Phanatic to life. Burgoyne, officially known as the mascot's best friend, works up a mighty sweat dancing on dugouts during Philadelphia's steamy summer nights. Lysol or Febreze used to be the go-tos for keeping the stench under control. Most mascots these days order off the happy hour menu when they really want to feel fresh and clean on the inside. "Now a big thing in the mascot world is vodka and water," Burgoyne said. "You put it in half-and-half, maybe a third vodka, the rest water, you put it in a squeegee bottle and you can spray your head that way and sometimes that takes the smell away." Sports fans around the globe get their kicks from all costumed creatures great and small that entertain, no matter how red-hot it gets under that heavy honker. The musky muppets take the field through triple-digit heat, broken temperature records and oppressive humidity that can wilt even the most die-hard fan during the summer stretch. Yes, sweaty is the head that wears the crown — such as Kansas Royals' mascot Sluggerrr — and regular costume cleaning is part of the mascot game. Of course, so is staying safe. The Phanatic, Fredbird and Clark the Cub all need a respite from the sweltering heat, which includes frequent breaks, constant hydration, cooling materials and proper ventilation. No one with a baseball for a head wants to faint on the field and need even more stitches. Keeping those performers from overheating is top of mind for Mitch Maxine. His company, BAM Mascots, designs and manufactures all sorts of bears, birds, sea creatures and monsters for sports teams at all levels. He understands a good mascot is more than just fabric and fur. Take a walk in their fuzzy feet, and most costume designers understand the health and safety of the person inside matters just as much as the amusement provided at the ol' ballgame. "In terms of the actual manufacturing of the costumes, they're just hot," Maxine said. "In terms of how we build it or what we make it out of, it's about how to reduce that level of heat." That's not always easy when designing a muscular costume meant to be worn for hours. "The thing that prevents people from being hot is usually the movement of air," Maxine said. "If I make a costume, even if I make it out out of very light, thin material, if I wear it in the middle of the heat, unless there's something to move air through the material and across my skin, I'm going to be hot." BAM is among the mascot manufacturers that strategically place vents or a battery-operated fan to circulate fresh air and expel stale air and heat inside the head. Lightweight, durable fabrics are used to wick away moisture and inconspicuous ventilation ports — think of fabric screens on the eyes, nose, mouth, ears of your favorite parrot or moose — can provide fresh air. Maxine also suggests cooling vests that can help regulate body temperatures in environments hotter than a pennant race or during extreme physical activity. Yet, the best advice on those worrisome weather days may as well come straight from mom before a Little League game: Take frequent breaks. Drink water. "We've had a couple of clients saying they want some sort of system built into the costume where a performer can wear a water bottle inside the pouch and have a straw come up inside their head so they can sip water while they're performing," he said. BAM made it for one customer. It was a simple design, just a belt with a holder for a water bottle, with a tube that ran up the character's chest and into the head. More could be sold in the future. The Phanatic suit doesn't include any vents or fans, but the 59-year-old Burgoyne — who started performing as the Phanatic at old Veterans Stadium in the late 1980s — has his own dressing room inside the bowels of Citizens Bank Park and can scamper away for a quick rest to beat the heat. It's needed. Considering this summer in Philadelphia, the city's public health department declared a heat emergency once temperatures spiked to triple-digits and power outages were even reported. "At the Vet, I used to wear bags of ice around my belly," Burgoyne said. "It turned to hot water after five minutes. I don't know if it really did any good at all. Citizens Bank Park seems to have more of a cross-wind, so it doesn't steam up the way the Vet used. When we came over here (in 2004), I stopped doing it." Bernie Brewer, Blooper and Billy the Marlin might want to try sticking their swampy extendable body parts in the freezer. There's an 80% chance the world will break another annual temperature record in the next five years, and it's even more probable that the world will again exceed the international temperature threshold set 10 years ago, according to a five-year forecast released in May by the World Meteorological Organization and the U.K. Meteorological Office. Phillies fans send cooling vests in the mail to the Phanatic ("I get a lot of, 'try this, try that,'" Burgoyne said) or cooling collars to stave off heat exhaustion. The Phanatic — the costume weighs about 35 pounds, Burgoyne normally wears just T-shirts and shorts under the flightless bird — is always hot no matter the weather because of the constant motion needed to ride ATVs or fight Tommy Lasorda or hug it out with Jason Kelce. On those stifling hot days, the Phanatic doesn't charm the crowd for more than 20 or 30 minutes at a time without a break and, no, he's never passed out. Burgoyne — such a delightful storyteller, it's a shame the Phanatic is mute — says a perfect weather day for a mascot is almost any day in October. "If the Phanatic is out there running around doing his thing in October, all is right in the world," he said. "He's not sweating as much, I'm not sweating as much and the Phillies are in the playoffs. That is the ideal time."
