New guest cast appearing in early episodes includes Samantha Bond (Downton Abbey) in the premiere episode; Daniel Maslany (Four in the Morning) and Bea Santos (World Away) in Concocting A Killer. Watch for Season 9 “set-ups” to continue in Season 10 story lines: Rebecca at medical school and a bit more will be revealed about her (ep.1005). Meanwhile, George Crabtree struggles with the biggest mystery of all: his love life.

  • Season 10 kicks off in grand style with a two-part mystery set in the world of Toronto debutantes vying for the hand of Toronto’s most eligible bachelor (think The Bachelor in 1904!)— and there is a killer on the loose, along with city-wide chaos set off by the 1904 Great Fire of Toronto, one of the seminal events in the city's history. (ep.1002
  • Detective William Murdoch and the rest of Station House No. 4 find themselves embroiled in cases both fantastical and historical:
    • An investigation into a man wrongfully jailed (ep.1004),
    • A murder involving the Olympic Champion Canadian soccer team (ep.1006),
    • A wronged woman who goes on a serial killing spree (ep.1007),
    • The death of a prize pooch at a dog show (ep.1011),
    • Maureen Jennings writes an episode for this season (ep.1012),
    • Murdoch tries to deliver on his promise to build Ogden the home of their dreams. Hélène Joy said in a recent interview, "It's going to be a really exciting year with a lot of developments to do with Murdoch and Julia's new house that they are building." (ep.1013)
    • The introduction of H.P. Lovecraft, the master of the macabre. (ep.1016)
    • Murdoch interviews a group of ladies involved in a roller derby-related murder. (ep.1017)
    • In the Season Finale, Yannick Bisson revealed in a recent interview that a very bad villain returns and that, "No one is safe." The most shocking episode features guest stars in pivotal roles: Sanctuary's Robin Dunne and John Wildman, who play bigwigs in city hall who have nefarious plans for Toronto’s future. (ep.1018)

Unbeknownst to the public during Season 10, writer and executive producer Paul Aitken brought five songs he had written for a musical episode idea which had been gestating since late 2001, but the idea did not make the cut. Two of the five songs will be sung eventually in Season 17 (ep.1722).

Meanwhile, CBC announced its decision to increase the number of women directing television series: Season 10 of Murdoch Mysteries has five women directors on board. Murdoch Mysteries wins the 2017 Golden Screen Award for TV Drama or Comedy.
