Motive
Season 3 Premiere - Friday, April 1st at 10pm ET/9pm CT on USA Network
ABOUT
Motive is a Canadian police procedural drama television series that premiered on CTV on February 3, 2013, immediately following Super Bowl XLVII. The series premiere had 1.23 million viewers, making it the number one Canadian series premiere of the 2012–13 season. On June 2, 2015, the series was renewed for a fourth and final season of 13 episodes, which premiered on March 22, 2016.
Starting in 2013, the series aired for two seasons on ABC in the United States. Following poor second season ratings, ABC did not include Motive on its 2015 summer schedule. In 2016, USA Network picked up Motive for its spring schedule with Season 3 episodes set to premiere on April 1, 2016.
SUMMARY
Motive is a police procedural drama set in Vancouver, B.C., following the investigations of working class single mother Detective Angie Flynn (Kristin Lehman). Each episode reveals the killer and the victim at the beginning; and the rest of the episode details the ongoing investigation, the killer's efforts to cover up the crime, and, via flashbacks, the events leading to the crime. This format is similar to that of the TV series Columbo.

Kristin Lehman as Detective Angelika "Angie" Flynn: a feisty Vancouver detective who investigates the motives of killers.
Louis Ferreira as Detective Oscar Vega: Flynn's partner and close friend.
Brendan Penny as Detective Brian Lucas: Originally a rookie detective, by the third season he has come into his own.

Valerie Tian as Officer Wendy Sung: the department rookie. (Season 2)

On May 31, 2012, CTV ordered 13 episodes from Foundation Features and Lark Productions, to be filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, from September 17, 2012, to February 26, 2013. The series premiere aired following CTV's broadcast of Super Bowl XLVIII.

I was wondering if they were starting with season 3 or from the beginning. I'm glad USA is starting where ABC stopped.
