The CW hopes to continue its slate of drama series with Season 4 of Coroner premiere in the fall of 2022. The Canadian Broadcasting Company’s police procedural and television base began in 2019. The CW purchased the show’s US rights in May 2020 after the show’s first season.
‘Coroner’ Season 4 Continues Jenny Cooper’s Detective
Season 4 will air on the CW in the fall to bolster its recent acquisition of several shows, including Family law, Leonardoand ProfessionalsRemarks CBS News. All of these shows are set to start new seasons, with Nexstar Media Group’s purchase of the network having happened in the background.
Based on the bestselling novel series by MR Hall, Coroner follows new coroner Dr. Jenny Cooper, portrayed by Serinda Swan (Smallville, chicago fire) as she attempts to solve mysterious deaths around Toronto. Adding to the emotional weight of the series: Jenny was recently widowed when the series premiered.
Her grief continues into Season 4 with each new death she investigates. Fans watched Jenny move through childhood trauma, anxiety and grief as she navigated her personal and professional life.
While Jenny is on a sabbatical at the start of Season 4 in an Airbnb rental on a farm in the middle of nowhere, her job is disrupted by a temporary coroner running the office. A new character, Dr. Elijah Thompson (Thom Allison), makes things difficult for Jenny’s subordinates and they can’t wait for her to return.
Unlike Jenny, who lets her staff do their job, Elijah is more focused on following the book. How embarrassing are these two going to be once Jenny is back in the office?
Professionally, Detective Donovan McAvoy, played by Roger Cross, wants to return to work after taking four months off to recover from spinal surgery. He has a lot to prove he can handle the job, especially to his partner, Malik Abed (Andy McQueen). His girlfriend Kirima, played by Sarah Podemski from Reservation dogswants him to calm down.
Meanwhile, Jenny’s personal life isn’t the best in the world. Ross, the adult son of Jenny (played by Ehrem Kassam), is home helping his grandmother Peggy look after his grandfather, Gordon. No wonder Jenny wants to get away from it all. Jenny’s home life was the best growing up.
Season 3 was an emotional rollercoaster
The body count kept rising for Jenny in season 3 of Coroner with lots of intrigue and strange deaths happening around Toronto that occupy the coroner’s office. The deaths on the show are just as diverse as the settings in which they occur, reports IMDb.
One episode shows Jenny questioning the effectiveness of her own therapy when a corpse appears in the elaborate maze of a retreat center. Later, in season 3, she must find out what caused a death in a haunted house.
The heart of the third season rests with the Browning murders, which Jenny must solve quickly before more people fall victim to a mysterious tapeworm infection that turns ordinary people into mass murderers. At the end of the Season 3 finale, Caleb Browning almost returns from the Cliff of Madness.
Instead, he stabs Liam Bouchard, Jenny’s (Éric Bruneau) on-and-off boyfriend, and traps him in a dark, abandoned room. Before Jenny can get medical attention, Liam slowly bleeds to death in front of his love before telling Jenny about his life’s regrets.
The new showrunner is ready for season 4
Adriana Maggs, the new Season 4 showrunner, is thrilled to highlight Jenny’s resilience this year.
By talking to TV-Eh, Maggs said fans will see Jenny trying to recover from all of her heartache over the past three seasons. “Just because you’re going through a pandemic doesn’t mean you’re going to stop being a coroner and people won’t be killed and you won’t have to solve these mysteries.”
Dr. Cooper had to endure the death of her husband, the death of her new boyfriend, the repressed trauma surfacing that she killed her little sister in a freak accident when they were children, and the return of her mother who abandoned the family for decades.
Top that off with the actual pandemic that also popped up in Coronerand fans can understand why Jenny had a lot to deal with in just three short seasons of character development.
