The Situation Hosts New Lighthearted True-Crime Series

FilmRise has partnered with Grinning Dog Entertainment for the lighthearted true-crime series Statute of Limitations, hosted by Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino (Jersey Shore).

Throughout ten 30-minute episodes, everyday people from all walks of life confess to the non-violent crimes they have committed and gotten away with, with no blurred faces or voice changers.

“This one-of-a-kind series features crimes openly discussed by people who ‘got away with it,’ coupled together with series host Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino’s unique style of humor that brings a lightheartedness to a normally dark genre,” said Max Einhorn, senior VP of acquisitions and co-productions at FilmRise. “That combination along with Mike’s highly engaged global fan base will help deliver big audiences for the series.”

Brian Ferretti, co-founder and principal of Grinning Dog Entertainment, added, “Having FilmRise, a major leader in the true-crime arena and The Situation, a true icon within the reality-TV space, as partners will make this program an immediate success. We look forward to sharing this one-of-a-kind program with avid true-crime fans around the world.”

Sorrentino commented, “I am thrilled to be a part of this new and unique true-crime series. It was an honor to work with FilmRise and Grinning Dog Entertainment to bring Statute of Limitations to life. I am so excited to share this lighthearted series with the masses and hope they enjoy it as much I do.”
