Run S1
From the team behind Fleabag comes the brand-new series Run, a romantic comedy thriller about a woman, Ruby Richardson (Emmy winner Merritt Wever), who walks away from her ordinary life in the suburbs to revisit her past with her college boyfriend, Billy Johnson (Domhnall Gleeson). They made a pact 17 years earlier that if either one of them texted the word “RUN” and the other replied with the same, they would drop everything to meet in Grand Central Station and travel across America together.
Emmy and Golden Globe winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag) guest stars, and is also executive producer.
Run has an 83% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes. “Run… is a beam of glorious light and a jolt of electricity,” says Vulture. “It’s also an absorbing piece of escapism about two people compelled to drop everything and escape.”
