CBC’s Murdoch Mysteries Greenlit for Season 11
Current Show StatusStoryline and cast
Murdoch Mysteries is a veteran Canadian historic criminal drama series that is based on the characters from the Maureen Jennings' novel series. Developed by R.B. Carney, Cal Coons and Alexandra Zarowny, the show is produced by Shattesbury Films, UKTV and ITV Studios Global Entertainment. The series follows the life of detective William Murdoch in Toronto in the end of the 19th century. Season 10 of Murdoch Mysteries premiered on CBC on October 10, 2016.
Detective Murdoch is a young servant of the Toronto Constabulary in 1895. Being young and prone to everything new, he enjoys following latest technological advances and believes that many of them can be applied to solving crimes. Fingerprinting, blood testing, surveillance, you name it – Murdoch picks up on up-and-coming technologies quickly and shocks his colleagues and the criminals with his swift and brilliant means of solving challenging murder cases. The tenth season premiere features a murderer on the loose as the debutantes in Toronto are pursuing the town’s most attractive bachelor. Simultaneously, the Great Fire creates chaos for Toronto’s inhabitants. Other cases in the current installment involve a female serial killer, the death of a valued pedigreed dog, and several others. Additionally, Murdoch’s relationship with his wife Julia is explored in depth as the couple considers adapting one more child.
Viewer reception and chances of renewal
Since it began airing on CBC starting with the sixth season, the series has become one of Canada’s most popular shows. The landmark 150th episode will be aired during the current 18-episode season. Murdoch Mysteries boasts exceptionally steady viewership, and season 10 premiere, which drew 1.4 million viewers, is perfect proof of that. With ratings as high as they currently are and the endless pool of possible topics, it’s not likely that the series will be cancelled any time soon. As such, we expect to see Murdoch Mysteries season 11 in the future.

Recently saw Yannick on the Hallmark Movies and Mystery channel. On the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries movies. I enjoy Murdock Mysteries and The Artful Detective. I have a lot of catching up to do. I watch it on the Ovation channel on Directv. I live in Ohio, greatly enjoy the history they put in many of there episodes. Thomas Edison, Mark Twain, Henry Ford and President Teddy Roosevelt
just to name a few of many famous and well known figures they have featured on the show. I agree it's one my favorite shows. I also watch Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries on Ovation.
Can't wait for Season 11. Especially love when Murdoch invents something that is a forerunner of something that is being used now and also love Crabtree's imaginative ideas
Of things that he thinks will happen in the future (and they do!). A quality program all around. - hope it stays on for 10 more years! So very glad that Dr. Ogden and Murdoch
finally we're able to get married!
There is so much material in the history of Toronto (Canada) that it could go on for years! How about a story regarding those that went over Niagara Falls in various crafts, about the rum running during prohibition? There were some pretty bawdy houses serving "tea" about that time, and many boats docking at ports in the USA close to Toronto listed as going to Cuba lol.
Julia has said she can't get pregnant but how many couples start out adopting get a child only to find they are preggers? How about the underground railroad from the USA to Canada? Might be nice to teach a little history along the way. And always love it when you include historical people of that era. Prince Edward County was a fav vacation spot for the wealthy of Toronto in the summer ......
Can't wait for season 11 to start.
Just watched the final episode of series 10..Hell to Pay .
Its hell to pay alright...This episode 18 the last of the [censored] lot hasn't really ended in fact it has left us all hanging mid air . So now we will all have to wait for Series 11 to begin . ...Probably be in about six months time by my reckoning . But I will wait patiently because I'm totally hooked.
I will happily watch the footy till then .
Hope the show runs for twenty seasons. It's so good .
Cheers. Happy viewing .
She is no longer with us but im now addicted to the programme as well
I'm based in the UK (Isle of Man) so we're behind Canada and US so only just viewing series 10 e15 this week and watch via The 'Alibi' channel as we can get your Canadian channels
This is a wonderful crime drama program that can be enjoyed by any age. Unlike many "cop" shows that focus on blood and guts. Each week more horrific than the last. Granted, things like that may happen, but do you want your children to see it? They are just a how to for the crazies.
I do hope that all of the recurring cast return for season 11. Many are in jeopardy with the close of this finale. Inspector Brackenreid was outstanding in S10/E18. He stood with his men and fought for them. That's the kind of person anyone would be proud to work for/with. The loyalty of Crabtree, Higgins and Jackson is heart-warming. And I'd like to see Julia give a [censored] nose to that other scum-bag too. Murdoch Mysteries would not be the same should any of these wonderful characters "perish".
Thank you.
MM is one of the very few watchable programs on TV today - keep it going.
