Only Murders in the Building (2021)

Only Murders in the Building presents a light mystery comedy where three neighbors investigate crimes in their New York condominium, highlighting the normalization of homosexual relationships as a routine part of community life. Same-sex couples appear in romantic and affectionate scenes, without questioning or negative consequences, which invites the viewer to see them as equivalent to any other. This approach uses humor and empathy to lower defenses against visions that blur the natural order of human relationships. On a formal level, violence arises from stylized murders and physical confrontations, with blows, falls, and some blood, but without graphic cruelty. Sex remains in innuendo, kisses, and partial nudity such as buttocks or breasts in comedic contexts. The language is abundant in profanity, with strong insults and frequent swear words, typical of its TV-MA rating. Despite the charm of intergenerational friendship and detective wit, the anthropological background is concerning: it prioritizes sexual diversity over natural complementarity, presenting a relativism in matters of intimacy that can confuse young viewers. The series celebrates loyalty and courage, but wraps messages that alter the healthy vision of the person and relationships. Parents, evaluate whether the entertainment justifies exposure to ideas that redefine the common good.
