Mini-Series Premiere. Down-on-his-luck rideshare driver Jerry Hauser's existence is a bleak one... especially because every fare he picks up tells him how much he looks like uber-successful self-help guru Darren Hart. But after a twist of fate, Jerry is given the chance of a lifetime... which, if he's not careful, may well end his lifetime. So begins this California noir-a rollicking and gleefully lurid pulp crime story for our time.
