Dodging Her Bullet
Dodging Her Bullet is a comedic crime thriller
following a haughty detective named Ed
Wyznewski with the New York City Police
Department. Ed has made one too many enemies
after years on the force. After his request for
early retirement is thwarted by his superiors, he’s
punished by being paired with the partner of his
nightmares. Alexis Janey is a feisty, queer,
millennial rookie detective and she grates on the
curmudgeonly detective’s last nerve. Too bad
there’s a new serial killer in town and it’s up to
the unlikely duo to crack the case.
The series will also follow enigmatic Victoria; a
real estate mogul who is being harassed by the
Albanian Mafia. After Victoria seeks help from Ed
and Alexis, they'll soon come to question who
really needs saving...
An irreverent and provocative tone that brings to mind HBO Max’s THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT meets NO ACTIVITY.
