Fifth Season Lands Deals for Saint-Pierre

Saint-Pierre, a police procedural from Hawco Productions for CBC in Canada, has been licensed to UKTV, France Télévisions, and ABC Australia, among others, by Fifth Season.

Starring Josephine Jobert, Allan Hawco, and James Purefoy, season one ranked as CBC’s most-watched series of 2025. A second season premiered this month.

Fifth Season landed deals on season one with UKTV (U.K.), France Télévisions (France), ABC (Australia), Disney (Belgium and Eastern Europe), Quebecor Content (French Canada), FreeTV (Israel), Sky (New Zealand) and BBC Studios (BBC NL in the Netherlands and BBC First in Poland).

Ava Knight, director of acquisitions at Fifth Season, said: “Saint-Pierre is a cleverly crafted detective drama that feels both singular and familiar. Its enigmatic and picturesque location provides a fresh backdrop for a European-style cop show with a distinctly Canadian twist. The series is anchored by a fish-out-of-water detective duo whose warmth and humour bring to life the sharply written cases and intricate storylines that make each week’s mystery irresistible. The show has been a huge success for CBC in its home territory, and we can’t wait to introduce the magnetic duo of Fitz and Arch to audiences around the world.”
