Netflix UK is about to join several other Netflix regions in picking up a show that’ll feel at home to anyone who’s a fan of Virgin River or The Lincoln Lawyer. Both seasons of the hit cozy crime procedural Murder in a Small Town are officially touching down on Netflix in the United Kingdom on August 1st, 2026. The highly requested arrival of the series follows a staggered international rollout by Netflix earlier this year. What is Murder in a Small Town about? The series follows Karl Alberg, a world-class detective who is completely battered and burnt out by the grueling realities of big-city police work.
