Jackie the Ripper
Stak
Frequency: 1 episode/30d. Total Eps: 22

The infamous Whitechapel murders, retold.
Everyone knows the story of Jack the Ripper, the chilling serial killer that haunted the streets of 19th century London. Now, 135 years later, there’s a new killer in town.
In this darkly comic reimagining, men are the victims of sexually aggressive murders committed by a woman: the mysterious Jackie. The only obstacle standing in her way? The slightly clueless, extremely over-caffeinated Detective Abberline and his not-so-crack team at the City of London Police.
This is a laugh-out-loud, gruesome, thrilling comedy drama that will have you in bits – and might take your bits too.
