The series is based on a comedy skit from Saturday Night Live, which has already been adapted to big screen with a movie by the same name, released 10 years ago.

Synopsis:

“After rotting in prison for over a decade, America’s ultimate hero and uber patriot MacGruber is finally released. His mission: to take down a mysterious villain from his past—Brigadier Commander Enos Queeth. With the entire world in the crosshairs, MacGruber must race against time to defeat the forces of evil—only to find that evil… may be lurking within.”
