A Couple’s True Crime Podcast Leads To Dangerous Outcomes in ‘Based On A True Story’

True crime is a genre that’s not going away anytime soon, but what keeps the topic interesting is the many ways it’s been adapted. The upcoming Peacock original series Based On A True Story is taking the true crime podcast route in the dark comedy.

Created by Craig Rosenberg, Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina star as Ava and Nathan Bartlett in Based On A True Story. The couple, who is expecting a baby and are in serious debt, decides to capitalize on America’s obsession with true crime and start a podcast based on a killer in their neighborhood known as the West Side Ripper.

Tom Bateman, Aisha Alfa, Annabelle Dexter-Jones, Priscilla Quintana, Sebastian Quinn, Belmont Cameli, Yvonne Senat Jones, Lizze Broadway, Miles Mussenden, Li Jun Li, Natalia Dyer, Liana Liberato, Alex Alomar Akpobome, and Brandon Keener make up the ensemble cast.

Based on a True Story comes to Peacock on Thursday, June 8 with all 8 episodes streaming.
