What's The Show About?

It's a period piece based on a murder that happened in Wylie, Texas back in 1980. According to the Austin American-Statesman, the show began filming in Hutto in late September, and Killeen is included in the Texas filming locations.

'Love and Death' is the story of Wylie housewife Candy Montgomery, who was charged with the ax murder of fellow housewife Betty Gore. The women were friends, and attended the same church. Montgomery's affair with Gore's husband was said to be the trigger for the murder, which was ruled self-defense.

Cast members of the series include Elizabeth Olsen, known for her role as the Scarlet Witch in 'Wandavision' on Disney Plus.
