SundanceTV Releases Serial-Inspired Podcast, "Rectify: The Case Against"
Over the past year, riveting crime stories - real and fictional - have captivated audiences and raised the bar on storytelling, with two in particular receiving Peabody Awards for the caliber of their content.
One is SundanceTV's drama "Rectify," which returns for its third season Thursday, July 9th at 10:00 PM ET/PT; the other is the groundbreaking true crime podcast "Serial." Fans of both series have drawn parallels between the two: the flexibility of memory, the meaning of guilt vs. innocence, and more (a recent article in The Guardian discusses our fascination with these stories).
With that in mind, SundanceTV has created a catch-up tool that pays homage to Sarah Koenig and the NPR team: "Rectify: The Case Against." Written by Kate Powers, "Rectify" staff writer and Writers Guild Award nominee, the podcast provides a stirring narrative of the first two seasons of 16 episodes, recapping what we know about Daniel Holden's case.

In this age of binge viewing and overwhelming TV options, this podcast gives fans "16 hours in 16 minutes," so they can catch up in time for season three, or get a refresher if they haven't watched since last summer. We hope you and your readers enjoy this engaging, Serial-inspired podcast.
