About the Show

Tchéky Karyo stars as Julien Baptiste, the French detective who formerly appeared in the related TV series, The Missing. As the show Baptiste begins, our title character is newly retired, having recovered from a major operation for a brain tumor. He’s looking to live quietly with his family, but duty calls and, as ever, Julien Baptiste feels morally compelled to answer. “The way [the show] delivers narrative curveballs is striking. So is Mr. Karyo’s stolid portrayal of Baptiste,” says The Wall Street Journal.

MASTERPIECE aired two adrenalized seasons of Baptiste with guest stars including Tom Hollander (Us, The Night Manager) and Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve, Fleabag). Stream Baptiste Season 1 and 2 and more great shows from MASTERPIECE when you watch with PBS Passport. Watch online and on the free PBS App.
