Netflix Schedules Applegate & Cardellini Comedy; NBC Adds More to Summer 2019 Schedule
Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini star in the all-new Netflix Original Series, Dead to Me, an addictive dark comedy launching globally Friday, May 3, 2019 for 10 episodes. We first announced the comedy last year. Jen (Christina Applegate) is a sardonic widow determined to solve her husband's recent hit-and-run murder. Judy (Linda Cardellini) is an optimistic free spirit who's recently suffered her own tragic loss. When the two women meet at a support group, they become unlikely friends despite their polar-opposite personalities. But as they bond over bottles of wine, Entenmann's cookies and a shared affinity for The Facts of Life, Judy desperately tries to shield Jen from a shocking secret that could destroy her life as she knows it. Dead to Me, created by Liz Feldman (2 Broke Girls, One Big Happy), is an addictive dark comedy that dives into the painfully unfiltered, weirdly funny waters of grief, loss and forgiveness.
From creator and executive producer Liz Feldman, Dead to Me stars Christina Applegate (Jen), Linda Cardellini (Judy), James Marsden (Steve), Ed Asner (Abe) and Brandon Scott (Nick). Jessica Elbaum (Gloria Sanchez Prods.), Christie Smith and Christina Applegate also serve as executive producers, in addition to Adam McKay and Will Ferrell for Gloria Sanchez Productions.

NBC continues to lock in its summer schedule with the series premiere of new drama The InBetween as well as the return of top-rated newsmagazine Dateline NBC on its new night and popular alternatives series The Wall and Hollywood Game Night. This is all in addition to the tentpoles that were announced. New drama The InBetween premieres Wednesday, May 29 from 10-11 p.m. ET/PT. Harriet Dyer, Anne-Marie Johnson, Cindy Luna, Chad James Buchanan, Justin Cornwell and Paul Blackthorne star. Dateline NBC premieres Monday, June 10 at 10 p.m. ET/PT. It will also continue to air Friday nights. The Wall returns on Thursday, June 20 at 8 p.m. ET/PT (one-time episode at 9 p.m. on June 20 as well). LeBron James, Chris Hardwick, Maverick Carter and Andrew Glassman executive produce.
