"Woman of the Hour" is a crime drama set against the vibrant and gritty backdrop of 1970s Los Angeles, blending elements of psychological thriller and suspense common within the crime genre. Typical features include a focus on criminal psychology, a tense cat-and-mouse dynamic between characters, and a period setting that adds atmospheric richness. What sets this show apart from other crime titles is its unique premise where an aspiring actress (played by Anna Kendrick) becomes entwined with a notorious serial killer (portrayed by Daniel Zovatto) through their participation in a game show, "The Dating Game." This fusion of crime narrative with television entertainment history provides a fresh, meta-textual twist, exploring fame, manipulation, and danger in a compelling, character-driven story.
