Fox’s Memory of a Killer Debuts With Two-Night Launch and Next-Day Hulu Streaming

Early reviews highlight strong lead performances alongside uneven execution.

Overview

  • The Patrick Dempsey–led thriller premiered Jan. 25–26 on Fox, settles into Mondays at 9 p.m. ET, and streams on Hulu the following day.
  • Dempsey plays Angelo, a New York hitman maintaining a suburban family facade as early-onset Alzheimer’s threatens to upend both lives, with co-stars Michael Imperioli, Gina Torres and Odeya Rush.
  • Season 1 runs 10 episodes through March 23, with no renewal announced.
  • The series adapts Jef GeeraertsDe Zaak Alzheimer, following earlier screen versions in a 2003 Belgian film and the 2022 U.S. movie Memory.
  • Critics note charismatic leads but cite clunky execution, and producers say a neurologist vetted Alzheimer’s details as the show navigated a mid-production showrunner change.
