Josh Berman will be using experience from his years working on CSI on his new project Murder House Flip, a true-crime home renovation series for Jeffrey Katzenberg and Meg Whitman’s shortform video platform Quibi. It hails from Berman, Chris King (Penny Dreadful), author Katherine Ramsland and Sony Pictures TV.
Murder House Flip is described as an unconventional home-renovation show that takes on the country’s most infamous homes — the ones known for the mysterious murders and incredible intrigue committed within their walls. Homeowners turn to the colorful cast of forensic specialists, spiritual healers and high-end renovation experts to uncover the true crimes, shocking secrets and scandalous history of their homes. Then, cleansing renovations remove the stains of the past and take these homes from morbid to marvelous.
