My Life is Murder is returning to Acorn TV. The murder mystery comedy-drama will return for its fourth season on the streaming service, and the eight episodes will also air on BBC America.
Starring Lucy Lawless, Bernard Curry, Ebony Vagulans, Rawiri Jobe, Alex Andreas, and Joe Naufahu, the My Life is Murder series follows private investigator Alexa Crowe (Lawless) as she investigates and solves crimes. This time around, her friends and family are coming along for the ride.
Acorn TV revealed the following about the series’ return:
Popular crime drama My Life Is Murder returns to Acorn TV with a two-episode premiere on Monday, June 17, co-premiering on BBC AMERICA, with two episodes premiering weekly on Mondays on both platforms. Starring Lucy Lawless (Spartacus, Xena: Warrior Princess) as the fearless and unapologetic investigator Alexa Crowe, this new season features a slew of puzzling cases ranging from homicidal hairdressers to wicked widows and brutal ballet to deadly soufflés.
Eight new mysteries. Eight new worlds. Eight diabolical killers that only Alexa Crowe (Lawless) can catch. But this time, Alexa is bringing her friends and family along for the ride: Tech guru Madison (Ebony Vagulans, The Furies) is stepping up, contributing her considerable technical skills to Alexa’s investigations and the two of them have fallen into a comfortable mentor-mentee relationship. Though neither of them will ever agree on who is the mentor and who is the student. Cafe owner Reuben (Joe Naufahu, Game of Thrones) is stepping in. Brother Will (Martin Henderson, Grey’s Anatomy) is staying close. Detective Harry (Rawiri Jobe, Shortland Street) has her back and cranky cat, Chowder, can’t help complicating everything.
Emboldened by the changes in her life, ready to revisit demons of the past and excited to embrace her future, this year Alexa is even more of a force, determined to reveal the most carefully hidden secrets that crack the most bewildering cases. And, somehow, she and her fabulous whanau (chosen family) still have a bunch of fun along the way. Let the Auckland adventures begin again…

What do you think? Do you enjoy this murder mystery series? Do you plan to watch season four of My Life Is Murder on Acorn TV or BBC America?
I am addicted to this series! So fun and intriguing characters. Cannot wait for a new season!
Anxiously waiting for Season 5!

Very entertaining series. Between the scenery, the acting, and the story line, altogether enjoyable. The “hour” program goes much too quickly. Looking forward to many more years of this series.
Growing up with ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’, seeing her dark manipulations in ‘Spartacus’, becoming evil in ‘Ash vs Evil Dead’, to solve crimes in ‘My Life is Murder’…this actress has gained a warm place in my heart with her body of work.
As in the other series I mentioned, I thoroughly enjoy her performance in ‘My Life is Murder’, therefore there is a lot of hope from my end that this series won’t be cancelled for many years yet.
