A smash hit US thriller branded a "masterpiece" will debut on ITVX in 2026.
Grosse Pointe Garden Society, starring the likes of Melissa Fumero, Aja Naomi King, and Ben Rappaport, is set to premiere on the UK streamer on January 11, followed by a linear broadcast on ITV2.
The NBC series tells the story of a group of affluent suburbanites who are all linked by a grisly murder.
A synopsis teases: "Set within the pristine, tightly-managed world of an affluent suburban garden club, Grosse Pointe Garden Society unravels the lives of Alice (AnnaSophia Robb), Birdie (Fumero), Catherine (King) and Brett (Rappaport) – whose carefully curated existences are shattered when they become bound together by a dark secret, a murder no one is willing to speak about.
"As scandals deepen and unspoken truths begin to rot beneath the immaculate surface of the neighbourhood, the group is forced to confront the fractures in their relationships, their marriages, and themselves.

What to Read Next
"Blending emotional tension with layered mystery, the series explores the cost of perfectionism, the pressures of suburban performance, and the corrosive power of secrets."
The 12-episode series also stars the likes of Joy Ride's Alexander Hodge, Last Man Standing's Nancy Travis, The Vampire Diaries' Matthew Davis, and Raven's Home's Felix Wolfe.
The series premiered on NBC in February, but was cancelled after one season in June.
Grosse Pointe Garden Society currently holds a 75% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with the critics' consensus reading: "Naughty and not so nice with its salacious tour through the suburbs, Grosse Pointe Garden Society's twists aren't the sharpest shears in the shed, but a game cast keeps the series watchable."
In their review, AV Club said: "Melissa Fumero and Aja Naomi King chew the scenery in NBC’s new drama. Grosse Pointe Garden Society is a breezy watch that joins a crop of new network TV shows that rely on nostalgia with a bit of a twist."
Variety added: "The series is a reminder that putting a soapy spin on reliable formulas mostly leads to success."
Meanwhile, The Age wrote: "The series struggles with earnestness at times and is at its weakest when it tries to twang the heartstrings a little too hard. It’s at its best when the characters are sniping waspishly at each other..."
Fans echoed similar sentiments, with IMDB users branding the show a "masterpiece" and "charming", and it has been compared to hit series How to Get Away With Murder.
