To that end, Cineflix also sold seasons one and two of Murder Book to Sky in the UK and Discovery Networks Europe; and Hollywood & CrimeMurder She Solved: True CrimeUnusual Suspects and True CSI to Fox for its recently-launched UK channel YourTV.

AMC Networks International’s EMEA arm bought Cold Blood (aka Motives & Murders) seasons 1, 2, 3, 7 and 8; and CBS Reality UK took seasons three and four of Wives with Knives.
