  HIGHLIGHTS July 5 – SHOWTIME’s OUTCRY *Season 1*
  • OUTCRY is five-part documentary series examining the gripping story of high school football star Greg Kelley and a quest for truth and justice.

That all changed when he was convicted of sexual assault of a four-year-old boy, and sentenced to 25 years in prison with no possibility for parole. But a groundswell of support emerged for Kelley, calling into question the investigation, the prosecution’s tactics and ultimately, the validity of the conviction. All five episodes drop on Crave on Sunday, July 5.
July 24 – LAST CHRISTMAS *Movie Premiere*
  • It’s Christmas in July as LAST CHRISTMAS follows Kate (Emilia Clarke, GAME OF THRONES) a young woman subscribed to bad decisions.
