About ‘The Thing About Pam’

The limited series is a fictionalized version of the true-crime events committed by Pam Hupp. When Betsy Faria was stabbed to death in her Missouri home in 2011, her husband Russ was convicted of the crime. Eventually, Russ was exonerated when it was revealed that the real mastermind behind the crime was Pam, who was later charged with the death of another man, Louis Gumpenberger.

The story of Pam Hupp and her scheme to frame Russ Faria for his wife’s murder was first broadcast on “Dateline” and was eventually turned into an NBC News-produced podcast in 2019.

The show marks Zellweger’s first starring role in a TV series. Co-stars include Josh Duhamel, Judy Greer, and Katy Mixon. “The Thing About Pam” is narrated by Dateline NBC host Keith Morrison.
