What to Expect from Memory of a Killer Season 1 Episode 1 and Episode 2: Pilot / Ferryman
If you missed seeing McDreamy in action, Patrick Dempsey is now the leading man for FOX’s newest drama, Memory of a Killer. Dempsey becomes Angelo Doyle, a hitman who is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s.
With this new diagnosis comes the reality of the dangers his work can put him and his family in. When Angelo begins to forget who he is, what he has done, or who he has killed, how will his life change?
While the first episode will allow viewers to start learning about the characters and Angelo’s new reality, the second episode will jump straight into the action. Angelo will be questioned by an FBI agent while simultaneously looking into a shooting and the release of a prisoner on his own.
Will his new diagnosis affect the way in which he works?
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
