The Spencer Sisters Episode 1

The trailer for The CW’s new procedural introduces Victoria and Darby Spencer who are, despite the show’s title, definitely not sisters. The Spencer Sisters stars Lea Thompson (Back to the Future) as Victoria, a bestselling author and mom of Darby (Stacey Farber, Schitt’s Creek). Both mother and daughter share an interest in solving crimes, and together they take on cases that stump the police.

Episode one, “The Scholar’s Snafu,” will air on October 4, 2023. New season one episodes arrive on Wednesdays at 9pm ET/PT.

Joining Lea Thompson and Stacey Farber in what’s described as a “female-led, lighthearted procedural” are:

  • Thomas Antony Olajide (Learn To Swim) as Zane Graham, Darby’s high school best friend and local cop.
  • Edward Ruttle (Arctic Air) as Dr. Lucas Collins, Darby’s high school flame.
  • Husein Madhavji (Saving Hope) as Alastair Dhumal, Victoria’s IT Consultant (a.k.a. hacker).
  • Ayesha Mansur Gonsalves (Sort Of) as Sarita Stark, Victoria’s feisty literary agent.
  • Rodrigo Massa (El Dragon: Return of a Warrior) as Zane’s husband, Antonio Pereira, who operates a Brazilian bistro.
  • Kaitlyn Leeb (Spinning Out) as Lindsay Yip, a hotshot lawyer who is Lucas’ fiancée.
  • Adam Hurtig (Cult of Chucky) as the lead detective of the local police force.

Private Eyes‘ Alan McCullough created the series and serves as executive producer and co-showrunner with executive producer Jenn Engels (Sort Of). eOne’s Jocelyn Hamilton and Tecca Crosby and Buffalo Gal Pictures’ Phyllis Laing and Jennifer Beasley are also involved as executive producers.

“The Scholar’s Snafu” Plot: When Darby’s (Farber) friend is wrongfully accused of plagiarism, she and her estranged, best-selling mystery novelist mother Victoria Spencer (Thompson) must put aside their differences and investigate. The episode was written by Susin Nielsen and directed by Andy Mikita.
