EXCLUSIVE: Jason Priestley is staying on The CW.

Priestley, who stars in Wild Cards for the network, is the star and exec producer of Private Eyes West Coast, which has just been picked up by the Nexstar-owned broadcaster.

Private Eyes West Coast is a spinoff of Canadian detective comedy drama that ran for five seasons.

Priestley and Supernatural’s Cindy Sampson have reprised their roles as private investigators Matt Shade and Angie Everett in the series, which was originally greenlit by Canada’s Corus Entertainment.

The ten-part series will air later this year on The CW. It has already been renewed for a second season by Corus.

Private Eyes West Coast is produced by Piller/Segan, which is behind Wild Cards, and Lionsgate Canada.

Shade (Priestley) and Angie (Sampson) have left behind their P.I. firm and settled into a new life on the west coast, but their new quiet life is shaken when a night out lands them at the scene of a murder. A woman stands over her dead boyfriend with a bloody steak knife in hand. Believing in her innocence, Shade and Angie dive headfirst back into the high-stakes world of investigation.

Over the season, the private eyes juggle the challenges of opening a P.I. firm in a new city. Without their friendly Toronto network of sources, Shade and Angie work to build a new community. From tracking down a missing student in the wilderness of British Columbia to extracting a murder confession from a surfer in Tofino, Shade and Angie prove life on the west coast is packed with heart-pounding thrills.

Priestley, who also directs two episodes, will exec produce alongside Shawn Piller, Lloyd Segan, Sarah Dodd, Jennifer Kassabian, Jocelyn Hamilton and Darren Giblin. Dodd and Kassabian serve as showrunners. Lionsgate has international distribution rights.

“We are thrilled to welcome Private Eyes West Coast to our fall lineup and to continue working with the immensely talented Jason Priestley on another CW series,” said Brad Schwartz, President, The CW Network. “We are also excited to expand our partnership with Lionsgate, as well as collaborate once again with the Piller/Segan team, who have made Wild Cards the network’s most-watched scripted series of the year and have created yet another show packed with humor, action and undeniable chemistry between its two leads.”

“We love what the Piller/Segan team and showrunners/creators Jennifer Kassabian and Sarah Dodd have done to build on the story of Jason Priestley and Cindy Sampson’s Shade and Angie in Private Eyes West Coast,” added Jocelyn Hamilton, President of Television, Lionsgate Canada. “The CW is the perfect network to deliver the next chapter of these beloved characters to audiences.”
