Screens/Streaming

Based on a True Story

What: Miniseries
Where: Peacock, 8 episodes
When: June 8
Genre: Comedy thriller
Why you should watch: Based on a True Story, Peacock’s new streaming series, starring Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina, is about a stereotypical true crime fan who stumbles on a real serial killer and decides to exploit her proximity for financial gain. The series turns the true crime genre on its head (well, maybe turns it a few degrees past the similar 2021 series, Only Murders in the Building).
