The seven-episode series premieres on HBO Max on April 27 with its first three episodes. New episodes will release weekly through May 25. Created by David E. Kelley (“Big Little Lies,” “Nine Perfect Strangers,” “The Lincoln Lawyer”), “Love and Death” “tells the true story of Candy and Pat Montgomery and Betty and Allan Gore — two churchgoing couples enjoying their small-town Texas life… until an extramarital affair leads somebody to pick up an axe,” the logline says.
In the real-life case, Candy Montgomery was having an affair with Allan Gore after becoming friends with his wife, Betty Gore, through church. One June 13, 1980, Betty was found murdered while Allan was out of town. She was struck 41 times by an axe. Candy was accused of murdering Betty, but pleaded she was acting in self defense after Betty learned of her husband’s affair. Candy underwent a successful polygraph test and was later acquitted. Jesse Plemons co-stars as Allan Gore, Lily Rabe plays Betty Gore and Patrick Fugit is Pat Montgomery. The cast also includes Krysten Ritter, Tom Pelphrey, Keir Gilchrist and Elizabeth Marvel. Last year, Jessica Biel starred in the Hulu limited series “Candy” about the same case. Melanie Lynskey co-starred as Betty Gore, with Pablo Schreiber as Allan Gore.

Kate Aurthur editor In spring 2020, during the earliest phase of the pandemic, production on Season 3 of “Barry” was shut down before it could even begin.

They wrote the fourth season of “Barry,” and then went back and rewrote the show’s third, which still hadn’t started filming. As Hader and Berg wrote Season 4, they started to realize that “a very clear ending presented itself,” Hader told Variety in an interview last week.
