REVISIONIST HISTORY

OVER MY DEAD BODY
We all have limits. And some people who are pushed beyond those limits will do unspeakable things. In “Tally,” the first season of OVER MY DEAD BODY, Dan and Wendi are two good-looking attorneys whose wedding is featured in the New York Times.

ROOT OF EVIL
When Elizabeth Short, also known as The Black Dahlia, was brutally killed in 1947, it gripped the entire country. More than 70 years later, it remains America's most infamous unsolved murder.

But murder is just part of the Hodel family story, one filled with horrifying secrets that ripple across generations.
