The couple are the content creators on their own true crime podcast - Jo (a foley artist) supplies the sounds that bring life to her partner’s words - and a trip to Briddus in Newfoundland to look at a harrowing case from 1980s which saw five members of the Chaffey family murdered feels like an opportunity not to be missed.
Once a tourist destination, Briddus never really recovered from the Chaffey cases and the satanic claims associated with the murders and the locals (including bent cops) are determined that the whole business remains buried. The closer Farid gets to the truth, the more danger he is in.
Jo is staying at the home of her recently deceased mother - a schizophrenic who took her own life - and, whilst existing in her own world of sound-recording, begins to hear things that take her down a path to a dark family secret.
Months later, having seemed to have left the project behind and now trying to save their strained relationship, both Jo and Farid realise that the events of many decades before have bled into their lives and may not be finished with them yet.

We've tested plenty of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

Something Undone: everything you need to know
Are the killings based on a real-life true crime?
No. In the show Matthew Chaffey killed his wife and three children and then himself and the manner of the deaths leaves reason to believe it was not an open and shut case but it does not reference a real-life true crime. There is also no such place as Briddus in Newfoundland.
Who is in the main cast of Something Undone?
Michael Musi as Farid – a podcaster determined to solve a cold-case murder.
Madison Walsh as Jo – a foley artist who struggles with her mental health.
Billy Campbell as Pastor Cape – an enigmatic man of the cloth.
What is the elevator pitch for Something Undone?
A true crime podcast duo, Jo (Madison Walsh, Mrs. America, The Expanse) and Farid (Michael Musi, All My Puny Sorrows, Kim’s Convenience), reopen the haunting mystery of a 1980s cold case but struggle with the repercussions as they’re thrust into danger. Later, as they escape to an isolated island in an attempt to recover, they ultimately move closer to the trauma they so desperately tried to escape.
