"Killer Fall Comfort Food"

I am LOVING LOVING LOVING Only Murders in the Building, and here's a great piece on it:

Visually, the show is a Thanksgiving feast as well. Fans of Nancy Meyers’ kitchens and summer houses have a whole new Pinterest board ahead of them: the color palette is all deep jewel tones and rich autumn. Everything is art–from Oliver’s grape bubblegum fall coat to the emerald green of Charles’ kitchen cabinets. I can’t remember seeing wallpaper more gorgeously utilized to the extent it is in every character’s living space. These may sound like banal pleasures, but such uncomplicated beauty is a balm in these dark times. We all could use a week away from our families in Oliver’s cozy living room or Charles’ spotless kitchen, or even Mabel’s deconstructed den of blush solitude. Or at least an evening sipping champagne from coupe glasses with a couple trusted friends as big band music plays from the radio.
