Two-time Academy Award® winner Renée Zellweger makes her broadcast television debut as both star and executive producer of this limited true-crime drama inspired by the stranger-than-fiction, real-life story that captured worldwide attention and served as the subject of several popular Dateline NBC episodes as well as a hit podcast. Based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria, "The Thing About Pam" chronicles the unbelievable twists and turns of a seemingly straightforward homicide case that would ultimately uncover a deadly plot linked to a woman named Pam Hupp (Zellweger).
