Meanwhile, Tuesday night sees the premiere of Murder in a Small Town, based on L.R. Wright’s bestselling mystery series. Rossif Sutherland stars as a weary big-city cop who moves to a tiny coastal community hoping for a quieter life. But those hopes are quickly upended when he finds himself once again solving various misdeeds, up to and including murder. The show’s supporting cast includes a murderer’s row of familiar faces, including Smallville’s Kristin Kreuk and Paula Patton from Mission: Impossible—Ghost Protocol.
Murder in a Small Town will follow the second season of Fox’s anthology series, Accused. This sophomore year will include an episode featuring William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman, one of the first times they’ve appeared together onscreen since Huffman’s 2019 involvement in the college admissions scandal.
Fox’s midseason offerings include Doc, an English-language adaptation of a popular Italian medical drama. House of Cards star Molly Parker plays a Minneapolis-based doctor who loses eight years’ worth of personal and professional memories following a brain injury, but continues to treat patients. And Denis Leary is one of the producers behind the new comedy Going Dutch, which follows a U.S. Army colonel whose penchant for saying whatever’s on his mind—no matter how ill-advised—gets him exiled to a remote base in the Netherlands.
