When will Memory of a Killer premiere on FOX?

FOX wants to give this series a boost, so the pilot episode will get a special timeslot. Tune in tonight, Sunday, Jan. 25 at around 10 p.m. ET. This is assuming the NGL game earlier in the day doesn’t go into overtime. FOX will air the Rams vs. Seahawks game, and these two teams could easily have to face off against each other into OT.

You’ll be able to watch on FOX with your regular cable provider. If you don’t have that anymore, then you’ll want to tune in with YouTube TV, Fubo TV, or however you usually watch FOX.

Can’t stay up after the game? Well, you can always watch Memory of a Killer on Hulu. The series will head there the day after, so in this case, it’s on Monday, Jan. 26.

What to expect on the Memory of a Killer series premiere

The first episode is set to introduce us to the characters and the storyline as a whole. We’ll get to meet Angelo Flannery, who is just a regular, everyday photocopier salesman. Well, that’s what he appears to be, but there is a darker side to him. He’s an impressive hitman with a deadly secret.

While carrying out a hit, Angelo starts to witness something he hoped would never happen. His memory is failing him, and slowly, his two worlds threaten to combine. He has just one person to lean on, Dutch, who is an accomplished chef at a restaurant that is a front for the criminal enterprise the two are in. However, is he willing to admit to this deadly issue knowing what it could mean for the enemies out there?

Then there’s his daughter, who is expecting her first child. She has no idea about her dad’s secret, and now it all threatens to come out.

Memory of a Killer will move to Mondays at 9/8c after tonight on FOX.
