VIENNA BLOOD returns in January 2023 for a third season of diabolical new cases for Dr. Max Liebermann and Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt to solve. Set in 1900s Vienna — a hotbed of philosophy, science and art, where cultures clash and ideas collide in the city’s grand cafes and opera houses — the series stars Juergen Maurer and Matthew Beard (most recently seen in MASTERPIECE’s Magpie Murders).

Set in 1908, Season 3 finds brilliant young English doctor Max Liebermann and tenacious Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt working as an established crime-solving duo, having cracked several of Vienna’s most mysterious and deadly cases. Now a published author in the field of criminal psychopathy, Max has finally moved out of his parents’ house and into a plush apartment of his own. And bolstered by his successful investigations with Max, Oskar’s star is on the rise in the department and — for the first time in a long time — he seems open to letting someone into his life.
