A dark comedic thriller, Based On A True Story is about a realtor, a former tennis star and a plumber who seize a unique opportunity to capitalize on America’s obsession with true crime.
In the TV series "Based on a True Story," Ava and Nathan, a struggling married couple in affluent Los Angeles, stumble upon a shocking revelation: their plumber, Matt, is an active serial killer. Instead of seeking justice, Ava sees an opportunity to create a hit podcast with Matt as the star.
As they dive deeper into the dark world of true crime, their lives and marriage become entangled in a web of secrets and danger. With comedic undertones, the show explores the exploitative nature of the true crime genre and delves into the insecurities and status obsessions within Ava and Nathan's relationship and their social circle.

Woke labels
Members can file a published criterion and itemized evidence. Other members +1 or −1 that reason — once. If 10% of members who weighed in file a label, and a reason reaches net +5, that rank keeps the title omitted from the database. Weak labels do not.
