NBC’s Grosse Pointe Garden Society revolves around a murder — but even the cast didn’t know the identity of the dead body their characters were burying.
During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Ben Rappaport previewed what viewers can expect from the series, which premieres on Sunday, February 23, saying, “It all starts with our showrunners, Jenna Bans and Bill Krebs. It is remarkable how they have woven this thing together. The rollercoaster ride they’ve taken us on is absolutely incredible. Every couple of weeks we get the new scripts and we read them and are like, ‘Oh my God, what happens next?’ And we’re just dying for the next one.”
Rappaport, 38, noted that the stars of the show were theorizing exactly like fans would be.
“But all four of us have our own very intricate story lines that branch off of this. It just keeps you guessing all along the way,” he explained. “I think that’s the thing that’s going to hook people is the addictive quality in every episode where you think you’re getting closer — but then maybe you’re not. There’s a lot of twists and turns.”
