What is ‘Irreverent’ about on Peacock?
Irreverent is a drama series that centers around criminal Paulo Keegan (Donnell). After he flees America, he settles in a small Australian reef community in Far North Queensland. Paulo changes his name to Reverend Mackenzie “Mack” Boyd and attempts to switch his mind frame from a life of crime to helping others.
Mack settles into the community, which is a small beach town. He finds individuals who want to connect and are in need of a leader. Although Mack begins to enjoy his new life, the Chicago mob is hot on his tail. The only way he can fly under the radar is to keep up his act.
“The only way he will be able to stay off [the Chicago mob] radar will be to maintain the illusion that he is a Reverend,” the synopsis reads. “To do that though, Mack will have to appear to care. Trouble for Mack is, after all that pretending, it may just become a little bit real.”
Each episode will focus on a problem Mack faces while he continues to work out how he will gather enough money to purchase a new identity to get his life back on track. There’s action, suspense, and cliffhangers in this new series.
