Quote:

MOTIVE is an unconventional way to watch a crime drama unfold. Each episode of the new CTV Original Drama begins by revealing not only the victim, but the killer as well. It’s not a “whodunit,” it’s a “whydunit,” a question faced by spirited female Vancouver homicide detective Angie Flynn (Kristin Lehman) as she begins to piece together the clues from the crime. How are the victim and killer connected? What is the motive? As the mystery unfolds, the audience navigates a complicated maze of clues alongside the detective and her team.

In the series’ signature teaser, viewers meet the killer and the victim in two separate opening vignettes. This surprising format challenges both the lead character and the audience to solve the mystery each week. While Angie sets out to piece together a murder plot, viewers spend time with the killer both before and after the crime, giving them the opportunity to delve inside the mind of a criminal, and understand their motive.

Flashbacks to the killer and victim amplify the tension and reveal their shared backstory. The narrative focuses on the unique cat-and-mouse element of the series as Angie closes in on the killer, and the evidence needed to solve the crime.

MOTIVE’s disarming and street-smart lead character Angie Flynn doesn’t suffer fools or authority figures lightly. Leading criminals and co-workers alike down the garden path, they soon realize that taking this sexy and sassy force-of-nature at face value is a major mistake. Viewers will be entertained by Angie’s character, intrigued by her investigation, and emotionally invested in both.

Watched the first couple episodes and really liked it, but it seems to be on at a really inconvenient time for me. Thank God for PVRs :) Just catching up this weekend on a bunch of recorded episodes and I'm liking it more and more. The characters are believable, easy to get into, but show more and more depth as the show goes on - the character development is really well done.

They start off by showing you the victim and the killer right off, usually people who seem completely unconnected, and ultimately the story unfolds to show the motive and how it came about... but they're very, very good at misdirection throughout the episode, constantly giving you little clues to make you think you know what the motive will be, before turning it around and giving you something completely different, which to me is the thing that really sets it apart from other crime procedurals.

And yes, it is set AND SHOT in and around Vancouver - they don't try to hide it at all.

Second season kicked off tonight and they're back in fine form! This show and especially the characters are just so well-written, really glad it's back on!

So, nobody else watching this?

Like Loius Ferreira as Col. Young in SGU... loving him as Det. Vega in this. Such awesome chemistry with Flynn!
