It would be called SOULMATES. A twisted love story about two people realizing in the midst of their relationship how much alike they truly are. Taking place in a small town and possessing elements of a black comedy, SOULMATES would be like Mr. and Mrs. Smith but with serial killers instead of spy assassins. It would be a one-season show with a definite ending like Harper’s Island, the Prisoner remake, or Jekyll.
The series opens with the boyfriend, who’s a medical examiner, enjoying his boringly normal relationship with his girlfriend, who’s a shy librarian. But the boyfriend is feeling the emptiness of something missing in his life with her. He goes to his therapist for help and the therapist suggests maybe he should be more open with her. Maybe he should tell her the secret that the therapist feels he’s been keeping from him and others in his life for some time. The boyfriend says no to the suggestion, believing the girlfriend would leave him on the spot if she knew. It is revealed that the boyfriend is a serial killer and a very good one.
The boyfriend’s always felt confident in his killer skills until a rival serial killer comes to town slaying people in a way the boyfriend never dreamed of. The boyfriend doesn’t know whether to be impressed or deeply jealous of the rival serial killer. When the rival killer steals a victim the boyfriend has been stalking for a while, the boyfriend launches his own investigation into the rival killer to find out who he is and expose him to the police so he would be out of the way and things would be as they were before he came in. Things take a shocking turn when the boyfriend discovers that the rival serial killer is his girlfriend. At some point, the boyfriend and the girlfriend confront each other about their dark secrets. Surprisingly, knowing this about each other strengthens their relationship.
But their happiness may not have long to last when a legendary FBI agent joins the police investigation to hunt down the girlfriend’s killer alter ego. The FBI agent has history with the girlfriend's killer alter ego going back when he was investigating her early killings. The FBI agent went into early retirement when his investigation came to a disastrous dead end. Now he’s back with a vengeance and he won’t rest until he catches her.
What do you think? Would it work? Would you watch something like this? What would the show or the characters need to connect with the audience and attract their interest?
