IN THE DARK * Series Premiere* (13 episodes x :60)
Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET, beginning April 4
IN THE DARK follows Murphy (Perry Mattfeld, SHAMELESS), a hard-living, hard-drinking, disaffected twenty-something with a penchant for cigarettes and casual sex – she’s also blind. Murphy lives with her supportive best friend, Jess (Brooke Markham, Dude), and – more reluctantly – her trusty guide dog, Pretzel, whose presence she resents. Her parents own a guide dog school, a venture they opened hoping it would give Murphy a job with some purpose, but so far it’s just another place where she sleeps off her hangovers.
Murphy’s life comes crashing down when she stumbles upon what she’s sure is the lifeless body of her closest friend, Tyson (Thamela Mpumlwana, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY), the sweet teenager who she befriended after he saved her from a violent mugging. When the police arrive and there is no body to be found, and with Murphy not exactly sober, they aren’t especially inclined to investigate. Murphy is devastated, and is only held back from spiraling downward even further by her resolve to learn what happened to Tyson. Murphy is determined to find the truth, no matter the risk… even if it means she has to sober up a little.
IN THE DARK also stars Rich Sommer (GLOW), Casey Deidrick (DRIVEN), Keston John (BOSCH), Morgan Krantz (YOU’RE THE WORST), Derek Webster (RAY DONOVAN), and Kathleen York (OUTCAST).
IN THE DARK is from CBS Television Studios and Warner Bros. Television, in association with Red Hour Films, with executive producers Corinne Kingsbury, Jon Collier, Ben Stiller, Jackie Cohn, Nicky Weinstock, and Michael Showalter. The series is distributed internationally by CBS Studios International.
KILLING EVE Season 2 (8 episodes x :60)
Sundays at 8 p.m. ET, beginning April 7
Starring Golden Globe® winner Sandra Oh, the first season of KILLING EVE was the most-watched television program in its timeslot for specialty networks among total viewers, making it Bravo’s #1 new series last broadcast year, and a Top 10 series on Canadian Entertainment Specialty channels. Season 1 was voted one of the best shows of 2018 by Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The Atlantic, and Vanity Fair.
Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer (THE WHITE PRINCESS) return as MI6 operative Eve and psychopath assassin Villanelle in this story of two women, bound by a mutual obsession and one brutal act. In the second season, the action picks up just 30 seconds after the end of the final episode of Season 1. Villanelle has disappeared and Eve is left reeling, having no idea if the woman she stabbed is alive or dead. With both of them in deep trouble, Eve has to find Villanelle before someone else does… but unfortunately, she’s not the only person looking for her.
Produced by Sid Gentle Films Ltd for BBC America, the series is based on the Codename Villanelle novellas by Luke Jennings and is executive produced by Sally Woodward Gentle, Lee Morris, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Gina Mingacci and lead writer Emerald Fennell. Sandra Oh and Francesca Gardiner are co-executive producers. Elinor Day serves as series producer.
