With May comes tons of exciting returning titles on streaming, and among them is this hit British series from the BBC, released internationally by Netflix. Inspired by Holly Jackson’s 2019 novel, the six-episode thriller series premiered on BBC iPlayer in the UK on July 1, 2024, and on Netflix internationally the following month. Later in November, Season 2 was announced, which now has an official trailer and, as confirmed, will be based on Jackson’s 2020 book sequel.
Directed by Dolly Wells, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murderreturns this month with its sophomore season, which sees Emma Myers’ Pip Fitz-Amobi back to crack a new case. As teased by the ominous trailer, there’s a new mystery that will take Pip to unexpected places as she struggles with the idea of justice, straying even further from the “good girl” she once was. Season 2, like its predecessor, will contain six 45-minute episodes. Watch the trailer in the player below!
Collider Exclusive · TV Medicine Quiz Which Fictional Hospital Would You Work Best In? The Pitt · ER · Grey’s Anatomy · House · Scrubs
Five hospitals. Five completely different ways medicine goes sideways on television — brutal, chaotic, romantic, brilliant, and ridiculous. Only one of them is the ward your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out exactly where you belong.
🚨The Pitt
🏥ER
💉Grey’s
🔬House
🩺Scrubs
01
A critical patient comes through the door. What’s your first instinct? Medicine under pressure reveals who you actually are.
02
Why did you go into medicine in the first place? The honest answer says more about you than the one you’d give in an interview.
03
What do you actually want from the people you work with? Who you want beside you under pressure is who you are.
04
You lose a patient you fought hard to save. How do you carry it? Every doctor who’s worked a long shift has had to answer this question.
05
How would your colleagues describe the way you work? Your reputation on the floor is usually more accurate than your self-image.
06
How do you feel about hospital protocol and procedure? Every institution has rules. What you do with them is a choice.
07
What does this job cost you personally? Nobody works in medicine without paying a price. What’s yours?
08
At the end of a long shift, what keeps you coming back? The answer to this question is the most honest thing about you.
Your Assignment Has Been Made You Belong In…
Your answers have pointed to one fictional hospital above all others. This is the ward your instincts, your temperament, and your particular brand of dysfunction were built for.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center
The Pitt
You are built for the most unsparing version of emergency medicine television has ever shown — one that puts you inside a single fifteen-hour shift and doesn’t let you look away.
You need your work to be real, not romanticised — meaning over drama, honesty over aesthetics.
You find purpose inside the work itself, not in the chaos surrounding it.
You’ve made peace with the fact that this job takes from you constantly, and gives back in ways that are harder to name.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center demands exactly that kind of person — and you would not want to be anywhere else.
County General Hospital, Chicago
ER
You are the person who keeps the whole floor running — not the most brilliant in the room, but possibly the most essential.
You show up, do the work, absorb the losses, and come back the next day without needing the job to be anything other than what it is.
You care about patients as individual human beings, not as cases to solve or dramas to live through.
You believe in the system even when it fails you — and you understand that emergency medicine is about holding the line just long enough.
ER is television about endurance. You have it.
Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, Seattle
Grey’s Anatomy
You came to medicine with your whole self — your ambition, your emotions, your relationships, your history — and you have never quite managed to leave any of it at the door.
You feel things fully and form deep attachments to the people you work with.
Your personal and professional lives are permanently, chaotically entangled — and that entanglement drives both your greatest disasters and your most remarkable saves.
You understand that extraordinary medicine often happens at the intersection of clinical skill and profound human connection.
It’s messy at Grey Sloan. You would not have it any other way.
Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, NJ
House
You are drawn to the problem above everything else — the symptom that doesn’t fit, the diagnosis hiding underneath the obvious one.
You’re not primarily motivated by the patient as a person — though you are capable of caring, even if you’d deny it.
You work best when the stakes are highest and the standard answer is wrong.
Princeton-Plainsboro exists to house one extraordinary, impossible mind — and everyone around that mind is there because they’re smart enough to keep up.
The only way forward here is to think harder than everyone else in the room. That is exactly what you do.
Sacred Heart Hospital, California
Scrubs
You understand that medicine is tragic and absurd in almost equal measure — and that the only sane response is to hold both of those things at the same time.
You are warm, self-aware, and funnier than most people in your field.
You use humour to get through terrible moments — and at Sacred Heart, that’s not a flaw, it’s a survival strategy.
You lean on the people around you and let them lean back. The laughter and the grief are genuinely inseparable here.
Scrubs is a show about learning to become someone worthy of the job. You are still very much in the middle of that process — which is exactly right.
There’s a New Case in ‘A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder’ Season 2
In Season 2 of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, Pip is determined to fix the fallout from solving the mystery of Andie Bell’s (India Lillie Davies) disappearance and Sal Singh’s (Rahul Pattni) murder – and stay away from any more investigations. But with Max Hastings’ trial approaching and Connor’s brother Jamie suddenly disappearing, Pip finds herself in the middle of a new investigation, hoping to save Jamie. She wanted to move on, but not so fast.
In addition to Myers, who returns as Pippa “Pip” Fitz-Amobi, the British murder mystery’s new season stars Zain Iqbal as Ravi Singh, Henry Ashton as Max Hastings, Asha Banks as Cara Ward, Yali Topol Margalith as Lauren Gibson, Jude Morgan-Collie as Connor Reynolds, Misia Butler as Stanley Forbes, Eden H. Davies as Jamie Reynolds, Jack Rowan as Charlie Green, and Freddie England as Robin.
For those who missed the intriguing 83% RT Season 1, it follows Pip as she determinedly investigates the mysterious disappearance of high school student Andie Bell. Pip was certain she could get to the bottom of what really happened — and she was right, as the teen detective uncovered the truth about Andie’s murder and proved that Andie’s boyfriend, Sal Singh, who had been accused of killing her, was innocent.
A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Season 2 premieres on May 27, 2026.
