It won’t be long now, folks, until the fan-favorite Kiwi series, The Brokenwood Mysteries, returns to screens in the US and Canada. Check out the trailer!
One of the best shows streaming today is The Brokenwood Mysteries, the hit New Zealand whodunit series that follows police investigators as they delve into murders and other crimes in the small, quirky Kiwi town of Brokenwood.
The lead cast are Neill Rea (Go Girls) as Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd and Fern Sutherland (The Almighty Johnsons) as Detective Kristin Sims. Costars include Cristina Ionda (Filthy Rich) as pathologist Dr Gina Kadinsky and Jarod Rawiri (Shortland Street) as Detective Constable Daniel Chalmers.
In the upcoming Season 11, the Brokenwood police team plunges into a web of deception, greed, and dark secrets, using less-than-conventional methods to tackle their most perplexing cases yet, including those involving seemingly supernatural incidents and mysterious murders with hidden motives. Here’s a quick overview of the six new episodes:
Episode 1101 — “The Ghost in You” — Shepherd and his team investigate when a devoted fan of the band Stolen Arrow falls to her death from a bell tower. The detectives must dig into the band’s secrets and dark history to find the actual cause of the victim’s demise.
Episode 1102 — “Sudden Death Round” — When popular radio host Ryan Osbourne is killed in an explosion at his old high school, the shock waves rattle the community. The hidden rivalries and secrets that emerge create a long list of suspects for Shepherd.
Episode 1103 — “All Hallows Eve” — After a man is fatally stabbed during a séance, and no weapon is found, Shepherd digs into the eerie incident to catch the murderer. Questioning if supernatural forces were involved, the team must separate superstition from reality.
Episode 1104 — “How the Other Half Dies” — When Brokenwood’s elite begin to act strangely, the occurrences come to a head after a wealthy man is crushed by a chandelier in his home. As Shepherd investigates, he uncovers a tangled mystery filled with greed and revenge.
Episode 1105 — “The End of the Line” — A science teacher mysteriously dies zip-lining while staffing a leadership camp for teens. But after the victim’s past reveals a web of uneasy alliances and rivalries, Shepherd must cipher through a long list of suspects.
Episode 1106 — “An Oades to Christmas” — When a man dressed as Santa is found dead on the side of the road, the team investigates. But after Gina examines the body and concludes the cause of death was a heart attack, potentially triggered by scrotal electrocution, foul play is suspected.
Also returning for the new season are Karl Willetts (Outrageous Fortune) as Frankie “Frodo” Oades, Tracy Lee Gray (Westside) as Trudy Neilson, and Jason Hoyte (Nothing Trivial) as Ray Neilson.
