Black Snow is an Australian crime drama television series set in an Australian South Sea Islander community in northern Queensland.[1]
Black Snow was renewed for a second season on 12 March 2024.[2]
In 2019, police detective James Cormack investigates the cold case murder of 17-year-old Isabel Baker in 1994.
The Sydney Morning Herald's Karl Quinn wrote "Black Snow is a Trojan horse of a show. It’s an effective crime drama that does pretty much all you could ask of it. But lurking inside there’s a whole legion of more challenging ideas."[1] Luke Buckmaster of The Guardian gave it three stars, saying it is "a mostly well-made murder mystery that starts strong but runs out of gas as it approaches its twist-filled ending".[3]
In the United Kingdom, the show airs on BBC Four and streams on BBC iPlayer.[5]
