Premise
Dead to Me is about a friendship that blossoms between Jen (Applegate) and Judy (Cardellini).[8] Jen is a recently widowed real estate agent based in Laguna Beach, California, trying to come to terms with her loss through therapy, exercise, and other methods. She uses anger and resentment as an outlet for her grief.[9] She meets Judy in a grief support group. Jen mourns her husband, who was killed by a hit-and-run driver, while Judy claims she is grieving for her fiancé who died of a heart attack. In actuality, Judy is the hit-and-run driver and her fiancé broke up with her.[10] The two characters face their struggles differently, as Jen finds herself in a dark place and Judy maintains a positive disposition.[9] This difference quickly leads to a deep bond between the two. Jen becomes more unhinged as she unravels the mystery of her husband's death and Judy's secrets.[1]
