Acorn TV has released a first-look teaser and photos for its upcoming original series You're Killing Me, starring and executive produced by Brooke Shields. The six-episode murder mystery, set in a New England town, follows a novelist and podcaster investigating a friend's death. The series premieres this spring on the streaming service.
On March 10, 2026, Acorn TV announced the first look at its new original series, You're Killing Me, through a teaser and photos. The six-episode murder mystery is executive produced by and stars Brooke Shields as Allie, a bestselling novelist. She forms an alliance with Andi (Amalia Williamson), an aspiring writer and podcaster, to investigate the killing of a close friend in a quaint New England town.
Tom Cavanagh plays Jack, the new lead detective for the local police department and a former city resident adjusting to small-town life. The series was created by Robin Bernheim Burger and is a co-production between Topsail Entertainment and Shaftesbury.
Executive producers include Bernheim, Shields, James Genn—who also directs episodes 101 and 102—Michael Volpe for Topsail, and Christina Jennings and Scott Garvie for Shaftesbury. Scott Smith directs episodes 103 and 104, while Paul Fox helms episodes 105 and 106.
The announcement highlights Acorn TV's focus on international mysteries and dramas, with You're Killing Me joining its slate of original content. The series is described as a whodunit reminiscent of classic small-town mysteries, though sources note its modern take. It is a Canadian production and set to premiere in the US this spring 2026.
No specific premiere date beyond spring has been provided, and further updates are expected.
