Murdoch Mysteries

CrimeDramaMystery60 min per episode

In turn-of-the-century Toronto, Detective William Murdoch applies emerging forensic methods to murder cases that baffle more traditional police work. Yannick Bisson is Murdoch, a methodical investigator whose cases often intersect with Dr. Julia Ogden, the coroner portrayed by Hélène Joy, as she pushes for authority in a profession shaped by Victorian expectations. Each mystery threads police procedure, scientific curiosity, and the pressures of a city shifting toward modernity, with Murdoch’s precise approach often putting him at odds with convention as much as with the suspects he pursues.
