One of the most infamous cold cases in recent history is set to become the subject of a scripted series.
MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios — the producers of Yellowstone and its assorted spinoffs — are developing a limited series about the killing of JonBenét Ramsey. The project is in its early stages and doesn’t have an outlet attached yet.
Writers Harrison Query and Tommy Wallach sold the project to MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios and will be executive producers. Richard Lagravenese (Behind the Candelabra, Unbroken) will be the showrunner and will also executive produce.
The currently untitled series will “detail the mysterious death and the surrounding media frenzy in the murder of JonBenét Ramsey, a case that captivated an entire nation and left us with more questions than answers,” according to the show’s logline.

The syndicated newsmagazines got a ratings bump during the week ending Aug. 20 with their coverage of the Jonbenet Ramsey murder case arrest. Nearly all of the newsmagazines were up from the previous week and from the same period a year ago thanks to their coverage related to John Mark Karr, who was arrested Aug. 16 in Bangkok, Thailand, as a suspect in the murder of 6-year-old Ramsey nearly a decade ago. The Boulder (Colo.) County District Attorney's office has since ruled that DNA evidence shows that Karr, who had confessed to the murder when he was arrested, could not have been the killer. Top-rated newsmagazine "Entertainment Tonight" averaged a 4.4 household rating, according to Nielsen Media Research. That figure is up 5% from the show's previous weekly rating and up 7% from a year ago. Helping boost the ratings was an interview with Pam Paugh, the sister of JonBenet's mother, the late Patsy Ramsey.
