The Canadian drama returns to The CW in October.
August 17, 2026
The CW announced today that the second season of Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent will premiere on Monday, October 5. The network currently holds the broadcast rights to the first two seasons of the Canadian drama, which has already aired three seasons in its home country.
A spin-off of the classic series format from Dick Wolf, the series follows Detective Sergeants Henry Graff and Frankie Bateman of Toronto's Specialized Criminal Investigations Unit as they investigate high-profile homicides in Canada's largest metropolis. Their unique investigative skills involve a variety of psychological tactics, with a focus on the motives and actions of criminals. Cases delve into the worlds of high finance, politics, real estate, media, and more.

I saw the first season on the CW last fall. I liked it, it had an unique Canadian twist starting with the ranks of the detectives, which is patterned after Britain. Compared to the US franchises, it is much like "Law and Order: Criminal Intent". Each series was built around a star detective with a rather quirky personality.

Good show. The cast is excellent and the storylines are interesting. Not sure what is up with CW. This show aired its 3rd season 4 months ago.

Erm, if this is announcing the season 2 premiere, then how have they already shown season 3?

I don't get why we need another Law and Order.
