She and her daughter Lucy were living with Charles, but after t...
Living in apartment 10D, Oliver’s once-thriving career as a Broadway director has gone south following a string of flops.

Being the creative "leader" of the podcast, Oliver ca...
Living in apartment 12E, aspiring artist Mabel shares a personal connection with the deceased Tim Kono.

Being friends with Tim, Mabel also finds herself as a central figure in another crime, the murder of Z...
Wrongly convicted for Zoe’s murder ten years ago, the series introduces us to Oscar after he’s been released from prison. Being one of Mabel and Tim’s best friends, Oscar is pulled into the investigation too, and does all he can to assist the main trio. Throwing some romantic tension into the mix, Oscar and Mabel both have feelings for each other. ...
While she might be a bassoonist, Jan is also an incredible actor! Jan managed to misdirect and fool the main trio about her true identity until their investigation was almost over. However, she couldn’t keep up the act forever. When Mabel and Oliver find her bassoon cleaning equipment in Tim’s apartment, they realize the two were in a relationship....
Poor Tim, the Arconia’s very first (and unfortunately not last) murder victim. Being friends with Mable, Oscar and Zoe, Tim had a long history at the Arconia before mostly shutting himself off from his personal life. Of late, his only real relationship was with Jan, and we all know how that sadly turned out. Though his murder was tragic, it helped ...
After going over all the main characters, it’s time to get back to Bunny, the newest murder victim at the Arconia. Her death served as Season 1’s big cliffhanger, resulting in our lead trio being arrested as an unknown assailant has (presumably) fled the scene. So, what do we know about Bunny? She was the board president at the Arconia, meaning she...
Jackie Hoffman as Uma Heller
Uma is a rather crabby woman who doesn't get along very well with most of the other residents but she was one of Bunny’s closest friends in the Arconia. Jackie Hoffman has appeared in multiple Broadway productions such as The Addams Family, On The Town, and Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. She also recently appeared in the TV series Feud: Bette and Joan.
Vanessa Aspillaga as Ursula
As Arconia’s building manager, Ursula did her best to keep all utilities in working order and her tenants happy. Saying this, she also had access to the numerous complaints her tenants filed against Tim Kono, proving to be an early ally, as well as a potential threat, to the trio with this information. Ursula also has a fascination with marketing schemes, one of which was Gut Milk, that she convinces Oliver to invest in. Vanessa Aspillaga has had recurring roles on The Jim Gaffigan Show and t...
Zainab Jah as Ndidi Idoko
Ms. Idoko wanted to annex Tim Kono’s apartment quickly after his death so she could expand her own and was, therefore, a suspect in the first season for a brief time. Zainab Jah has recently starred in the British espionage series Deep State, playing Aminata Sissoko, and had a guest role on The Good Lord Bird portraying historical figure Harriet Tubman.
Tina Fey as Cinda Canning
Cinda Canning is the host of the incredibly popular true-crime podcast All Is Not OK In Oklahoma, which our main trio first bond over and become inspired by. In Season 1, the trio asks for her help when they suspect Sting of being Tim’s murderer. Though their theory is quickly debunked, the trio nonetheless was excited to meet Cinda, even when it turns out she’s not a very friendly person. Season 1 ended with Cinda deciding to create a new podcast about Charles, Oliver, and Mabel’s alleged mu...
Da’Vine Joy Randolph as Detective Williams
Despite initially ruling Tim Kono’s case as a suicide, Detective Williams jumps back into the case once she starts listening to the trio’s podcast. She becomes an ally to Charles, Oliver, and Mabel, offering them Tim’s phone, which was originally taken as police evidence, and access to Tim’s toxicology report. While happy to help them, she kept her involvement a secret from her fellow officers. With the trio arrested for Bunny’s murder, Detective Williams will undoubtedly play a significant r...
With any new season, we need new characters to shake things up! The mystery around Bunny’s death is only just beginning so let’s start speculating how these new characters will fit into the mix.
