The second season of WGN America’s comedic procedural series “Carter” will premiere January 20 at 10 PM/9C.

Jerry O’Connell (Billions), Sydney Poitier Heartsong (Chicago P.D.) and Kristian Bruun (Orphan Black) return for the show’s sophomore season.

In Episode 201, “Harley Wears A Wig,” Harley Carter’s first official case as a P.I. is a kidnapping with a surprising twist. Complicating matters is the fact that a new, exciting Police Chief with a dark past has landed in Bishop to shake things up for Harley and Sam, and to set the table for a tantalizing season of twists. Guest starring Colin Mochrie

“Carter” revolves around Harley Carter (O’Connell), the star of a hit detective TV show, who decides he needs a break from Hollywood. Carter returns to his sleepy hometown where he quickly discovers that his years of playing a fictional detective come in handy when he finds himself immersed in real-life mysteries. In season two, Carter plants roots as a celebrity Private Investigator and doubles down on his fame in a world where life continues to imitate TV. But Carter will discover that the toughest cases to solve are personal ones when he finds himself embroiled in a love triangle with his best friend – a real detective – and her new police chief, played by Lyriq Bent (She's Gotta Have It), where the stakes are winner takes all.

“Carter” is produced by Amaze Film + Television, executive produced by the company’s Teza Lawrence and Michael Souther (Call Me Fitz, Saint Ralph) as well as Campbell, Berman, series star O’Connell, and Sony Pictures Television’s Gemstone Studios serves as executive producers. Carter was originally commissioned by Sony Pictures Television and is distributed outside of Canada by Sony Pictures Television.
