The "Accused" TV show refers to two notable crime drama anthology series:
- The American version (2023) is a crime drama anthology developed by Howard Gordon, based on the 2010 British series. It premiered on Fox on January 22, 2023, with each episode opening in a courtroom introducing the accused without revealing the crime immediately. The series explores the events from the defendant's perspective. A second season premiered on October 8, 2024. The cast includes Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Wendell Pierce among others.
- The original British version (2010-2012) was created by Jimmy McGovern and aired on BBC One. It is also a legal drama anthology where each episode follows a different character awaiting their court verdict, revealing how they ended up accused. It aired two series with notable actors like Christopher Eccleston, Sean Bean, and Anne-Marie Duff.
Both series focus on the lives and circumstances of people caught in extraordinary situations leading to court trials, presented in an anthology format where each episode is a standalone story about the accused. If more detailed information or a specific version is wanted, please specify.
