Disney Plus has assembled a strong main cast for mystery comedy Only Murders in the Building, which teams comedy legends Steve Martin and Martin Short with pop star Selena Gomez.
The series was co-created by Martin, who previously worked in family fare with the likes of Cheaper by the Dozen and The Pink Panther, but Only Murders in the Building has a bit more edge than those earlier offerings.
As a result, some parents might be wondering whether this is a series they can sit down and enjoy with the kids, or if it's best left until the little ones have gone to bed. Read on for details and guidance.
Only Murders in the Building age rating
Only Murders in the Building is accessible only via Star on Disney Plus, a banner reserved for the streaming service's more mature content so that serves as your first sign that this isn't as sugar-coated as a typical Disney production.
There is no official BBFC rating for the show, but the service's internal guidance has branded it with a 12+ i.e. recommended for people aged 12 years or over.
The programme page does not specify the reasons for this rating, but the series does feature some strong language and gore as its principal characters dig into a murder committed in their building.
