PBS has announced that Maigret has been renewed for a second season on Masterpiece. Filming began earlier this month in Budapest.

"We're incredibly grateful to our partners at PBS MASTERPIECE and Banijay for their continued support for Maigret," said Playground's Joint Managing Director David Stern. "Season 1 proved that Maigret continues to be both timeless and timely and Patrick Harbinson's approach to adapting the material has only lifted what was already an incredible character and literary canon. We can't wait for audiences to see what we have in store for Maigret, Madame Maigret and the loyal Les Maigrets in season 2."

The series follows Chief Inspector Jules Maigret, a rising star in the Paris Police Judiciaire. He is relentless in his investigations, with an uncanny ability to get under the skin of criminals and an unmatched knowledge of the city.
