Amy Poehler is teaming up with NBCUniversal for a new unscripted original series, “The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.”
The series, which will stream on Peacock, is based on the book by Margareta Magnusson. It will feature people who are at a major crossroads and need to get their houses and lives in order. A Swedish “Death Cleaner” will help organize and demystify homes, lives and relationships, allowing us to prepare for death while we enjoy life.
The Swedish Death Cleaner is meant to “turn each home upside down as they uncover and undo decades of collecting,” a news release states, adding: “With their distinctly Swedish sensibility, they liberate each person from the clutter in their lives, and allow them to pass on treasured mementos — and the deeply personal stories behind them — to their family, friends, or neighbors.”
