12 x 30' Dreamchaser & Maverick Entertainment

Each episode is built around a distinct crime type, behaviour or investigative method, from false confessions and romance scams to citizen sleuths, criminal profiling and ‘crime-tainment’.

Real-life cases from the legendary to the weird to the long-buried give each adaptation a strong connection to its home market, while the returning ‘Experiment of the Week’ puts popular assumptions about crime to the test.

A rotating line-up of celebrity guests brings personality and humour to the discussion, alongside criminologists and specialists who provide the expert perspective. A flexible guest segment can also introduce people with lived experience or a personal connection to the episode’s theme.

Smart, surprising and thought-provoking, the format offers a repeatable studio engine with the flexibility to tap into local crime stories, talent and expertise.

With Season 2 airing in October 2026, it is a proven returning format ready for international adaptation.
