Plot
Dead to Me is the story of Jen (Applegate), and Judy (Cardellini). Jen, a recent widow, is a Laguna Beach real estate agent. Jen is still trying to cope with her husband’s death and attends a grief support program. Jen and Judy meet at the grief support group. They soon become close friends. Judy visits the grief support groups to tell Jen, her fiancée, that her husband had died from a heart attack. But, this is a lie. Judy is the hit-and-run driver who caused Jen’s husband to die. Jen begins to unravel Judy’s secrets as the women form a strong bond.
Season 1 was about Judy’s secret. Season 2 featured Jen’s secret. Judy kept Jen’s secret about her hit-and-run driver. Season 2 was all about Jen’s secret. The secret was that Jen didn’t kill Judy’s ex-fiance Steve out of self-defense. Dead To Me season 3 will follow the same pattern and be focused on another secret. Liz Feldman, the showrunner, said that there is now another person with a secret. The secret that we will be following this season is likely to be Ben. Season 2 ended with a drunk Ben driving off and colliding with Jen and Judy. This will be Ben’s season. He is already feeling the emotional burden of seeing his brother’s corpse.
