Memory of a Killer

Fox | 25 January | Season 1 | 10 Episodes

Angelo lives a double life as an assassin and a family man - which all worked out well until he was hit with early onset Alzheimer’s. Now his worlds are colliding, putting his family in danger.

Losing one’s memory is a devastating hammer blow for anyone, but for Angelo Ledda, the stakes couldn’t be higher. His hit man job would be perilous enough, but there’s an added pressure: Angelo lives two totally separate lives – fearsome NYC hitman, and sleepy upstate Cooperstown photocopier salesman and father. Having built and maintained a brick wall between his two worlds, Angelo has seamlessly juggled and compartmentalized for years. But now that’s all about to change, because Alzheimer’s is a foe he can’t outrun, and he knows too well how this ends, as his older brother is already lost to the condition.

With no power comes no responsibility.

An aging and down on his luck private investigator in 1930s New York is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.

I really like the 1930s film noir aesthetic so am happily going to watch this in in black and white to start. I love that Prime is showing it in b&w and full colour versions though, because I know not everyone enjoys watching stuff in black and white.
