Rook, (any ethnicity, male or female, open age-range) who’s new to the Sheriff’s Department and eager to prove to the other deputies, the Sheriff, and to the whole town that tough and clever run in the family. Older brother Bruce, smarter than most, has had some poor judgement when it comes to friends. It devastated Rook to turn Bruce into the police five years ago, especially when he went to jail for longer than he deserved. That doesn’t change the fact that in the years since then, Rook has demonstrated that family means more than anything. Once inseparable, Bruce and Rook have struggled to reestablish their bond since the death of their father.
Logline: $1 is a braided mystery/thriller, a one-dollar bill changes hands in the small rustbelt town of Highland, in post-recession America. Created by Jason Mosberg, a one-dollar bill changing hands connects a group of characters involved in a shocking multiple murder. The path of the dollar bill, and point of view in each episode, paints a picture of a modern American town with deep class and cultural divides that spill out into the open as the town’s secrets get revealed. Each episode spotlights a different character in possession of the dollar bill.
Mostly “One Dollar” is grounded in serious, realistic issues, including the economics of a small town rooted in its steel mill past versus a developer’s vision for its future and questions about racial prejudice inside the Braden police department. “One Dollar” also depicts the haves and have-nots of a town called Braden, addressing socio-economic class disparity. And there’s a timeliness to the show with talk of tariffs kicking in that might help the steel industry and a white supremacist group that doesn’t believe the “seven gloves” murder actually happened, labeling it “fake news.”
The 10-episode series was created by Jason Mosberg, who executive produced along with Craig Zobel, Matt DeRoss, Alexandre Dauman, and Graham Gordy. CBS Television Studios produced in association with Anonymous Content.
