An eight-hour drama inspired by Carolyn Arnold’s “Madison Knight” detective novels is being developed by Muse Entertainment and Pop Fiction Entertainment.
Hélène Joy will star as Madison Knight, a daring detective who works to investigate criminals throughout the series. Orion Lee (“First Cow”) will portray Knight’s work partner, Detective Steven Hung. The action-packed crime drama is set on both the Pacific coastline of Sydney, Australia and the wilderness of British Columbia, Canada.
“As I read the books, I was immediately taken with Madison as a leading female character. She is unapologetic, unpredictable and deeply flawed. An extremely reluctant heroine if you will. What I love most is her sardonic nature and deeply sarcastic sense of humor. She doesn’t suffer fools and has little time for small talk,” said Joy, on her new role of Knight, in a statement.
Australian writer Justin Monjo and Canadian writer Lynn Coady are developing the series.

Murdoch Mysteries is one of the best gems to come out of Canadian television in quite a while, and the fourth season is now available on Blu-Ray. Whether you’re a fan already, or new to the show, I have a great giveaway to go along with this release. The first season and the fourth season on Blu-Ray.
The show takes place in Toronto in 1895, and features William Murdoch as a detective/scientist who is keen on incorporating the latest techniques (including the “finger marks” he is so fond of) into his investigations.
Season 4 kicks off with Murdoch butting heads with the new pathologist who has taken Dr. Ogden’s place. A body has been dismembered, and Murdoch has to find some answers using only a couple of pieces of a body which have been encased in cement. It starts off the season well, and gives us the opportunity to miss Dr.

According to Helene Joy, Durham County, a TV series she stars in, is a slap in the face for those who believe that life is a fairy tale.
For this Canadian actress, the show's dark tone isn't exaggerated. In fact, this gives a "bleak theme to Durham County", something that she feels necessary. After all, even if our life more or less borders on a fairytale, Durham County puts us in front of truths about our society in her opinion.
In Durham County, Joy plays Audrey Sweeney, a nurse who lives in a fictitious suburb of Toronto and who is married to Mike Sweeney, a former homicide detective who is now the superintendent of the Durham Police Department. Besides, her husband is investigating on murders related to drug trafficking along the corridor of the 401 highway. Now that the dust has settled at the end of the second season, Audrey is...

As it begins its third and final season on the Canadian premium cable network HBO Canada, the TV series Durham County promises to be darker. For the show's creator, Laurie Finstad-Knizhnik, life as it is shown in TV series doesn't need to look full of joy.
With splashes of blood, guns, corpses and even psychologically disturbed characters Durham County will leave a lasting impression on viewers. However, specified Finstad-Knizhnik, the violence you see in the show she created with Janis Lundman and Adrienne Mitchell isn't "gratuitous".
Shot in Montreal, Durham County follows Mike Sweeney (Hugh Dillon), a homicide detective from a police department of a suburb of Toronto. In the third season of the show, he's investigating on a very brutal double homicide of two teenagers. This double homicide is related to drug trafficking.

Shaftesbury Films, a Canadian production company, has announced that production has begun on the fourth season of the Canadian period/procedural TV series Murdoch Mysteries. The show will premiere in early 2011 on CityTV, a cable network, in Canada and Alibi in Great Britain.
The fourth season will throw some difficult challenges Detective Murdoch’s (Yannick Bisson) way. To start, pathologist Dr. Julia Ogden (Helene Joy), who departed for a new job at the Childrens’ Hospital of Buffalo at the end of season three, may have found a compelling reason to stay in Buffalo. Her replacement, brought in from Scotland Yard - the ill tempered Dr. Francis (Paul Rhys) - will frequently clash with the even-tempered Murdoch. In other episodes, under tragic circumstances, an old flame from Bristol, England, Anna Fulford (Lisa Faulkner) will return to pay Murdoch a visit; a crime spree leads to a Gypsy camp and a mysterious...

Readers from Canada and Great Britain, The Cultural Post received a press release from Shaftesbury Films, a Canadian production company. Indeed, it announced that CityTV, a Canadian cable network, renewed Murdoch Mysteries for a fourth season.
This TV series is based on the detective novels of Maureen Jennings and is set in Toronto in 1895. It follows Det. William Murdoch (Yannick Bisson). This young man uses forensic techniques - that were new at that time - to solve murders.

Moreover, Murdoch has people standing behind him. Dr. Julia Ogden (Hélène Joy), a young pathologist, shares the detective's fascination with forensic science and Constable George Crabtree (Jonny Harris), a young inexperienced policeman.

The name Hugh Dillon may not yet ring big bells in America, but he's a major star in Canada, and he's on the verge of replicating that success in the States. The process has already begun, actually. Flashpoint, an award-winning hit cop series in Canada, enjoyed a run here on CBS a few months ago, and his other popular award-winning Canadian series, Durham County, will premiere on Ion Television on Monday, September 7 at 8 p.m. Et/Pt. A dark, nasty little bit of business, Durham County casts Dillon as Mike Sweeney, a homicide detective seeking a new start out in suburbia after dealing with a deeply personal one-two punch: his partner was shot and killed, and his wife Audrey (Helene Joy) has been diagnosed with breast cancer. But fresh starts are all relative, and trouble seems to follow Mike, who learns that his new neighbor Ray (Justin Louis) just might be a serial killer.
