Ryan O'Rourke is a Senior News Writer at Collider with a specific interest in all things adult animation, video game adaptations, and the work of Mike Flanagan. He is also an experienced baseball writer with over six years of articles between multiple outlets, most notably FanSided's CubbiesCrib. Whether it's taking in a baseball game, a new season of Futurama or Castlevania: Nocturne, or playing the latest From Software title, he is always finding ways to show his fandom. When it comes to gaming and anything that takes inspiration from it, he is deeply opinionated on what's going on. Outside of entertainment, he's a graduate of Eureka College with a Bachelor's in Communication where he honed his craft as a writer. Between The IV Leader at Illinois Valley Community College and The Pegasus at Eureka, he spent the majority of his college career publishing articles on everything from politics to campus happenings and, of course, entertainment for the student body. Those principles he learned covering the 2020 election, Palestine, and so much more are brought here to Collider, where he has gleefully written on everything from the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes to Nathan Lane baby-birding sewer boys.

Netflix has been pulling some of its biggest crime thrillers straight from the pages lately. 2026 alone has seen the introduction of Jo Nesbø's Harry Hole and the twisty Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal team-up, His & Hers, based on the novel by Alice Feeney, to rave reviews and global success. Gabriel Basso also returned as Peter Sutherland for the penultimate season of The Night Agent at the start of the year, with Season 4 wrapping filming back in September. Now, the streamer just got one step closer to reopening its department of misfit detectives.

Filming officially wrapped on Season 2 of Dept. Q as of October 24, meaning it's almost time for Matthew Goode's troubled Detective Chief Inspector Carl Morck to get back on the case. The series, based on Jussi Adler-Olsen's long-running series of novels, moved quickly to return after breaking out as a massive success last year, ending with a production schedule a bit faster than initially anticipated. It'll enter its Sophomore outing coming off a debut that has racked up over 27 million views to this point and spent six weeks in Netflix's global top ten. Series helmers Scott Frank and Chandni Lakhani will be going much further and larger than the moody streets of Edinburgh for their next story, too.

While the first season adapted Mercy and introduced DCI Morck and the titular department tucked away in the police department's basement as they crack their first cold case, Season 2 will take on Disgrace, Adler-Olsen's second novel. It will take Morck into the world of the Scottish elite, with Frank previously stating it would focus on "rich and powerful people who believe they are above the law.” Assuming the series sticks close to the novel, the investigation will begin curiously with the closed case of a young brother and sister murdered 20 years ago. The killer was found to be a student at a boarding school who confessed to the crime, but the file wouldn't be on Mock's desk if it were solved, would it? He's left to question who put it there, what they know that throws the verdict into doubt, and why they've come to Department Q now.
