May 01, 2023 • Ellen Sherman & Gillian Gordon • Season 1 • Episode 15

LIFE ON MARS is both a time-travel fantasy and police procedural thriller. In 2006. Detective Sam Tyler is on the rise when he’s hit by a car. He’s in a coma when, inexplicably, he’s also vaulted back to 1973 where he's still a detective solving cases. Tyler fights to uncover which is his actual reality.

Quirky comedy ARDE MADRID is set in 1960s Spain in the household of actress Ava Gardner where Franco's government has enlisted a virginal teacher and a low level conman to pose as hired help and spy on Gardner. Innocent Anna Marie's life is changed when she begrudgingly forms a romantic relationship with the charming, larcenous Manolo.

KLEO, a dark comedy, is set around the fall of the Berlin Wall. Kleo Staub, a delightful, young East German, is working as a lethally successful Stasi assassin when she’s thrown in prison. When Kleo is released she sets off on a revenge tour to knock off everyone responsible for her imprisonment.
