The official trailer for BET+’s new Deon Cole dark comedy, Average Joe, is here. The new series premieres June 26 on BET+, with new episodes airing weekly.
Here’s an official description:
Inspired by the life of creator Robb Cullen, Average Joe is a darkly comedic, intense one-hour drama set in “The Hill” district of Pittsburgh. Blue-collar plumber, Joe Washington, discovers his recently deceased father lived a secret second life and stole millions of dollars from dangerous people just before he died. Now those people think Joe knows where the money is. A bloody and violent confrontation triggers a chain of events that force Joe and his close-knit circle of family and friends out of their very average and mundane lives into a life-or-death race against time to find the truth and the millions.
The series is executive produced by Rob Cullen and McG.
