Hello, India fans of Only Murders in The Building! If you were waiting for the new episode of the hit comedy thriller starring Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez to drop today at 12.30 pm and got nothing, here’s why. Disney+Hotstar, which brings the show to India has changed the streaming schedule, so now, instead of a new episode dropping every Tuesday at 12.30 pm, it will come on Wednesday, a good 24-hours later.

A query to Disney+Hotstar got us an automated response, “Hi, #Only Murders in the Building new episodes will be available every Wednesday at 12.30 pm on Disney+Hotstar. Stay tuned!

As such Only Murders In the Building used to drop hours after its original telecast and it was hard for fans in other parts of the world, who do not have Hulu access to steer clear of spoilers on social media. The timing of this change in schedule could not have come at a worse time, because there are only three episodes to go on this season. The identity of Glitter Guy will be all over the internet by now. So, why change things up now? We tried asking Disney+Hotstar, but our query elicited no response.
