Alternating between traditional multi-camera sitcom and single-camera drama, this genre-bending series, probes the secret life of a type of woman we all grew up believing we knew: the prototypical American sitcom wife. Allison McRoberts (Murphy) is married to self-centered and “lovable” cable guy Kevin (Petersen), but after a dark discovery, Allison teams up with neighbor Patty O’Connor (Inboden) to take drastic measures to escape her confines and take control of her life. She’s going to kill Kevin. 

At the end of season one, Neil (Bonifer) Kevin’s best friend and neighbor – and Patty’s brother – learned of their murderous plan and vowed to blow their cover. Now in the second and final season, Allison and Patty scramble to deal with Neil, pushing Allison to find a better way out. Altering the original escape plan, Patty once again agrees to help Allison, but this time, on her own terms.

“Entertaining, wry, and thought-provoking” – Vulture

“A pointed hybrid of broad sitcoms and crime dramas, Valerie Armstrong’s potent concoction is one of the few high-concept series that pulls off both parts” – Indiewire
