The CW has added the Piller/Segan and Lionsgate crime procedural Private Eyes West Coast to its slate.
Starring Jason Priestley and Cindy Sampson, the series is a spin-off of Private Eyes, which ran for five seasons. The ten-parter, produced for Global in Canada, arrives this year. Lionsgate Television manages international distribution.
“We are thrilled to welcome Private Eyes West Coast to our fall lineup and to continue working with the immensely talented Jason Priestley on another CW series,” said Brad Schwartz, president of The CW Network. “We are also excited to expand our partnership with Lionsgate, as well as collaborate once again with the Piller/Segan team, who have made Wild Cards the network’s most-watched scripted series of the year and have created yet another show packed with humor, action and undeniable chemistry between its two leads.”
“We love what the Piller/Segan team and showrunners/creators Jennifer Kassabian and Sarah Dodd have done to build on the story of Jason Priestley and Cindy Sampson’s Shade and Angie in Private Eyes West Coast,” said Jocelyn Hamilton, president of television at Lionsgate Canada. “The CW is the perfect network to deliver the next chapter of these beloved characters to audiences.”
