"Art Detectives" is a new six-episode crime drama series that revolves around the Heritage Crime Unit, a police department hired to solve murders connected to the world of art and antiques. The show stars
Stephen Moyer (
"True Blood") as art-loving DI Mick Palmer and
Nina Singh (
"The Lazarus Project") as straight-talking DC Shazia Malik. Together they solve murders connected to the world of art and antiques, from Old Master paintings, to Banksy street art, medieval manuscripts and collectible vinyl.
Each episode follows Mick and Shazia as they navigate a rich and colorful world driven by greed, obsession, lust and revenge. Throughout the season, the artfully astute detectives encounter a fake Vermeer, Viking gold, a rare Chinese vase and items rescued from the Titanic. Mick navigates these demanding cases while managing a budding romance with museum curator Rosa (
Sarah Alexander) and the sudden reappearance of his charismatic father, Ron (
Larry Lamb), who just happens to be one of Britain's most notorious forgers.
The series premieres on June 9, 2025 in the US and Canada on Acorn TV. Additional episodes will be released weekly on Mondays.
