Series Plot Synopsis

Prodigal Son‘s plot synopsis: “Prodigal Son is described as a fresh take on a crime franchise with a provocative and outrageous lead character and darkly comedic tone. It centers on Malcolm Bright, who has a gift: He knows how killers think, how their minds work. Why? His father was one of the worst — a notorious serial killer called “The Surgeon.” That’s why Bright is the best criminal psychologist around; murder is the family business. He will use his twisted genius to help the NYPD solve crimes and stop killers, all while dealing with a manipulative mother, annoyingly normal sister, a homicidal father still looking to bond with his prodigal son, and his own constantly evolving neuroses.”

Cast and Crew

Prodigal Son stars Tom Payne, Michael Sheen, Bellamy Young, Frank Harts, Aurora Perrineau, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Halston Sage.

Chris Fedak and Sam Sklaver wrote the screenplay for the Lee Toland Krieger-directed pilot episode.
