On March 13th, 2016, Yannick Bisson confirmed CBC had renewed Murdoch Mysteries for a tenth season at the Canadian Screen Awards during his acceptance speech of his fan choice award.

On May 24, filming began for Season 10, beginning with the third episode A Study In Pink.

On June 8, CNW announces: " Coming off its highest-rated season yet on CBC as the country's top-rated homegrown scripted program for the 2015/16 television season and marking 150 episodes in Season 10, the series will continue to follow Detective Murdoch, Station No. 4 and the City Morgue as they solve crimes inspired by Canadian history and featuring international celebrities of the early 20th century."

Season 10's finale marks Murdoch Mysteries' landmark 150th episode, filmed on location in Cobourg and Port Hope, Ontario until mid December 2016.

• 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),
  • 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 in the season finale. Yannick Bisson revealed in a recent interview that a very bad villain returns and that, "No one is safe."

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). The exploration of Crabtree and his new girl and how can she possibly fit into his world?  Will William and Julia adopt again? Who will be the next Chief Constable?
