The other is Bad Sisters, a witty and emotional darkly-comedic murder mystery from Emmy Award-nominee and BAFTA Award-winning star and creator Sharon Horgan.

Five Days at Memorial First Look

We’re big fans of trhe creatives behind these series, and we’re excited about this announcement.

The limited eight-episode series Five Days at Memorial will debut globally on Friday, August 12 with the first three episodes, followed by one new episode weekly, every Friday through September 16.

Based on actual events and adapted from the book by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Sheri Fink, Five Days at Memorial chronicles the impact of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath on a local hospital.

When the floodwaters rose, power failed, and heat soared, exhausted caregivers at a New Orleans hospital were forced to make decisions that would follow them for years to come.

Five Days at Memorial is executive produced and written by Carlton Cuse (Jack Ryan, Lost) and John Ridley.

The series is directed by Cuse, Ridley, and Wendey Stanzler (Clarice, Rebel), who we recently spoke to about her work on Made for Love.
