OXYGEN TRUE CRIME'S NEW SERIES "THE KILLER AMONG US" PREMIERES SUNDAY, MAY 17 AT 7:00 PM ET/PT

Host Alan Cumming Unmasks Cold-Blooded Killers Lurking Within Close-Knit Groups Across America

April 13, 2026 - Oxygen, the home of high-quality, true-crime programming, explores a series of shocking murders that take place in tight-knit communities throughout the US. As these sinister crimes rock close circles, universities, small towns, and places of worship, those closest are shocked when they realize the suspect could also be a friend, colleague, neighbor, or classmate. With Emmy-winning host Alan Cumming, The Killer Among Us premieres Sunday, May 17th at 7 pm ET/PT.

Throughout the season, Cumming takes viewers down the duplicitous road of devious, double-crossing, and deadly stories of those slain by a member of their own circle. The series is a real-life "whodunnit" that delves straight into the heart of communities where the unthinkable has happened, and no one knows why - or who is responsible.

From small rural towns to an academic research lab to high-end art organizations, The Killer Among Us takes viewers across the country to examine communities once thick as thieves uprooted by tragedy.
