The CW's 2023 fall TV lineup includes some familiar shows like Walker, but the vast majority of the lineup are new to viewers. The Spencer Sisters is one of the new scripted series heading to the network, starring Lea Thompson and Stacy Farber as a mother-daughter duo who work together as private investigators.
The series already aired earlier in 2023 on CTV in Canada, but it's making a move to US audiences on The CW.
"It's beyond fun to be half of The Spencer Sisters," Thompson said in a statement. "My major focus lately has been directing, but this show was just too delicious to pass up. A lighthearted mother-daughter mystery series with an outrageously delightful character and the chance to work with the luminescent Stacey Farber. Not to mention, it's exciting to be part of the new reimagined CW."
