Wild Cards hits linear TV on January 10 on CBC in Canada. The show starts one week later in the States on The CW. Use a VPN to watch new episodes from abroad if you're away from home.


From Only Murders in the Building to Poker Face, there's been a wealth of recent top-notch comedy crime drama, and another could be on its way in the form of Wild Cards.

Boasting the talents of Riverdale star Vanessa Morgan and Grey’s Anatomy's Giacomo Gianniotti, this latest cop caper centers on an unlikely crime-solving duo.

Gianniotti plays cynical, demoted detective Ellis, who finds himself forced to work with an ingenious con woman called Max (played by Morgan), with the pair using their unique skillsets to solve crimes.

Originally slated for broadcast in the fall, the show has had its release brought significantly forward.

Can the unlikely pair gain each other's trust and actually become partners? Read on as our guide breaks down how to watch Wild Cards online from anywhere in the world, including how to watch new episodes for free.
