Sugar is a contemporary, unique take on one of the most popular and significant genres in literary, motion picture, and television history: the private detective story. Season two ushers in the return of Los Angeles’s iconic private detective and film connoisseur John Sugar,” reads Apple TV’s synopsis. “Emmy nominee Colin Farrell returns for a new case, tracking the troubled older brother of an up-and-coming local boxer as his search for his beloved missing sister continues. As the investigation expands into a city-wide conspiracy with sinister intentions, Sugar must reckon with himself to answer the question –– how far will he go to do what’s right?”

Sam Catlin serves as the showrunner for season two. Catlin, Farrell, Audrey Chon, Simon Kinberg, Scott Greenberg, and Chip Vucelich are the executive producers. Mark Protosevich created the Emmy-nominated series and earned a Writers Guild Award nomination for the season one episode, “Olivia.”
