PREVIOUSLY RELEASED NOTE FROM CRAIG ROSENBERG, CREATOR / SHOWRUNNER / EXECUTIVE PRODUCER / WRITER
(COMPLETED AS OF APRIL 14, 2023)
Over the last decade, a true crime phenomenon has swept over America. Podcasts, documentaries, fictional shows based on true stories - they dominate the culture. Murderers have become celebrities and celebrities have become murderers which inspired me to create this show.
I became fascinated with the idea of a relatable married couple whose youthful dreams hadn't come to fruition and who saw the true crime tidal wave as an opportunity to change their lives and save their marriage. Our Los Angeles setting - the city where everybody wants to be famous - became a vivid backdrop to our story of fame, ambition, aspiration and murder.
Please sit back and join Ava and Nathan as they try to navigate the dangerous proposal they make.
