Dumaine
A vertical horror series. 60 episodes, 90 seconds each. Script by Kai Muhammad.

The Harvest
In a small Mississippi town, an FBI agent comes home after her father's sudden death and gets pulled into the staged murder of a young Black woman. She uncovers a hidden trafficking network tied to the town's most respected institutions and to her own buried past.
Two Things Can Be True
A vertical drama. Created by Stacey Muhammad.
A Black man with an extraordinary understanding of others confronts the painful irony of feeling profoundly misunderstood in a world that rarely makes room for his neurodivergent mind.
Open House
A struggling New Orleans couple is invited into a mansion that gives them everything they ever wanted, while the world outside quietly forgets they exist. It already knows their name.
Control
A grieving former dancer is chosen for a free, invitation-only wellness retreat where the guests are hollowed out one by one, and she's the one they really want.
Photo Dump
Co-created with Ghazi Gamali
When a street photographer's weekend carousel catches a beloved councilwoman with a woman who then vanishes, a smear campaign explodes across the internet. The people behind it are a masked Carnival krewe that has quietly run New Orleans for generations, and the one thing they can't control is a camera. With nine days until the vote, he has to prove what's real before they erase him.
