As an ER doctor, Mary Harris is used to helping save people's lives. At night, though, she turns her attention to a different practice. Working with her partner, a former plastic surgeon, Mary moonlights as an underground angel of death. Together, they help terminally ill patients end their lives on their own terms. Mary tries to fly under the radar with her side business -- which she has managed to do for a while -- but her secret career becomes increasingly complicated as business picks up. As her world starts to unravel, Mary realizes she has to fight dirty if she wants to keep the killing-scheme going.

Neal Justin Minneapolis Star Tribune 06/05/2017
The unique premise and Dhavernas' underplayed performance have us hoping for an extended killing spree. Go to Full Review Melanie McFarland Salon.com 04/25/2017
Speaking to the mounting consequences of her work in an upcoming episode, Mary sighs, "Life is a ride in the dark." "Mary Kills People" is its own special trip, and one definitely worth taking. Go to Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 04/25/2017
Grounded and believable, with the dry, witty, old-fashioned self-assurance of a Barbara Stanwyck or Katharine Hepburn, Dhavernas shades her comedy with drama, and playing drama is never more than a breath away from comedy. Go to Full Review Adrian Hennigan Haaretz 05/16/2018
Rather than giving us a "mercy killing of the week" procedural, we get a delightful, blackish comedy-drama that handles its subject matter with dignity (not Dignitas), and comes highly recommended. Go to Full Review Diana Keng TV Fanatic 06/05/2017
4.5/5
My first impressions are that Mary Kills People is an ambitious attempt at humanizing a fairly controversial topic with a large cast of players, all of whom have a direct effect on Mary and her mission. Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 05/09/2017
3/5
