About this episode
This season, we’re getting into 1950s Hollywood, ground zero for a cultural transformation that would upend every aspect of Americans’ lives. A movie theater in every city, a TV in every living room, and a Post-war America determined to be happy at any cost. Also during this period… a slew of untimely Hollywood deaths. The rules of the road for the next seventy years were being written in real-time, and not everyone would make it out alive.
Hosted by Adam McKay (The Big Short, Vice, Succession), the first episode of DEATH ON THE LOT arrives June 1st.
