My Life is Murder• WXXI-TV

Lucy Lawless stars in this modern-day Australian drama series as retired cop Alexa Crowe

My Life is Murders airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on WXXI-TV.

With her old boss regularly asking for her insight on cold cases and a young police data-analyst eager to be mentored–whether Alexa wants to or not–Alexa can’t seem to stop solving crime.

Lividity in Lycra, Ep. 3 airs April 18 – When Hugh Miller, the CFO of a hospitality empire, dies on a cycling ride with friends, the coroner rules it death by misadventure. But Kieran suspects the involvement of Hugh’s boss, hard-driving entrepreneur Roger Simms, and asks Alexa to look into it.

Can’t Stand The Heat, Ep. 4 airs April 25 – When culinary student Ivan Zhang is found dead in the school’s kitchen after slipping on oil and smacking his head, Kieran considers the scene suspicious—where did the oil come from, when the dish Ivan was preparing didn’t call for it? It might all boil down to Ivan’s archrival, Ling, the last person to see him alive. Alexa goes undercover to the cooking class to smoke out the killer.

Feet of Clay, Ep. 5 airs May 2 – A year ago, beautiful young PR assistant Christina Cortez was killed in a hit-and-run by a drunk driver who turned herself in a few days later. It seems like a tragic—but closed—case. But who sent Christina the mysterious message that prompted her to be at that fatal spot in the first place? Alexa investigates Christina’s boss, glamourous social-media queen Morgana Finch, for answers.

Another Bloody Podcast, Ep. 6 airs May 9 – When a true-crime podcast blames Kieran for the lack of progress on an investigation into the killing of a young gay man, who was found with a cult-like symbol on his forehead, Alexa is determined to help Kieran out. It soon becomes clear that not only does the podcaster want to remain anonymous, but that he or she knows intimate details about the victim.

Old School, Ep. 7 airs May 16 – Alexa revisits better days—or at least younger ones—after her beloved high-school teacher is crushed to death by a boat rack. Acting on Kieran’s hunch that the rack didn’t collapse by accident, Alexa looks into Miranda Lee, the new principal–who also happens to be her old classmate and frenemy.

Remains to Be Seen, Ep. 8 airs May 23 – While jogging one morning, Alexa collapses on the bridge named in honor of her late husband. As she confronts her mortality, Kieran takes the opportunity to hand her the case of Patrick Mandel, a gambling addict found buried in an already occupied grave. Alexa investigates the victim’s girlfriend—who is suspiciously a funeral director.

Fake Empire, Ep. 9 airs May 30 –When Kieran presents Alexa with another unsolved murder—a nurse stabbed in the back a week after proposing to his girlfriend—Alexa declines until Kieran mentions the involvement of clairvoyant Chloe Angel, who knows details about the case not released to the public. Ever the skeptic, Alexa is determined to find the killer and prove that Chloe is a phony.

Mirror, Mirror, Ep. 10 airs June 6– As Alexa’s birthday approaches, Kieran gives her an early present: the case of a plastic surgeon obsessed with getting her own cosmetic procedures, who died after self-administering an anti-wrinkle drug she developed. Alexa questions the husband-and-wife team that owns the clinic where the victim worked.

A Brief History of the Future • WXXI-TV

Explore a unique documentary series about our futures and how we can reimagine them.

A Brief History of the Future, a three-part series, concludes Wednesday, April 24, at 9 p.m. on WXXI-TV.

How do the stories we tell shape the boundaries of our beliefs about what is possible? From the dawn of time, stories are how humans have made sense of the world. A Brief History of the Future: Once Upon a Time emphasizes the fundamental role stories play in our lives, our inclination towards dystopian narratives, and the potential for bigger, better stories to unleash the power of human imagination and creativity moving forward.

CREATE Showcase: NOLA • WXXI-CREATE

In a Different Key • WXXI-TV

How life turned out for the first child diagnosed with autism, and what acceptance means.

In a Different Key airs Sunday, April 14 at 1 p.m. on WXXI-TV.

A mother tracks down the first person ever diagnosed with autism, now an elderly man living in rural Mississippi, to learn if his life story holds promise for her own autistic son. Her journey exposes a startling record of cruelty and kindness alike, framed by forces like race, money and privilege – but leads to hope that more communities are learning to have the backs of people on the spectrum.
