Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Sleeping with Danger is worth clearing space for. The writing in Sleeping with Danger treats its characters as people first, plot devices second. Inspired by Ann Rule’s true crime collection Mortal Danger and Other True Cases. Paul Carter was like a knight in shining armor when he met flight attendant Grace Tanner and swept her into a passionate love affair. But her dream man quickly became her nightmare as his jealous rage ultimately led to a brutal attack. The performances from Elisabeth Röhm and Antonio Cupo give it more weight than the premise alone would suggest. Sleeping with Danger came out in 2020. What elevates Sleeping with Danger is a refusal to let any character off the hook too easily. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Viewers drawn to character-driven storytelling will find plenty to sit with in Sleeping with Danger. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case.
