Premise

An irreverent blind woman in her twenties, Murphy, drifts through life in a drunken haze. She has only two friends—Jess, her understanding roommate, and Tyson, a teenage drug-dealer who saved her from a violent mugging. Out for a walk with her guide dog, Pretzel, she stumbles upon a corpse that must be Tyson's, but it disappears before the police arrive. When they do not seem inclined to investigate, Murphy clings onto the only thing that can keep her together: figuring out what happened to her friend.[1] She resolves to solve the murder herself, while also managing her colorful dating life and the job she hates at "Guiding Hope", a school run by her parents for training guide dogs.

Cast and characters

Main

• Perry Mattfeld as Murphy Mason, a young woman in her 20s who has been totally blind since age 14 from retinitis pigmentosa.

• Thamela Mpumlwana as Tyson Parker (season 1), a teenager who saved Murphy from a violent mugging two years previously, and became her closest friend until his untimely death.

• Kathleen York as Joy Mason (season 1; recurring season 2), Murphy's adoptive mother and the co-owner of Guiding Hope. Unlike Hank, she is less accepting of Murphy's poor life choices.

Development

The series was created by Corinne Kingsbury for The CW, to debut during the 2018–19 television season.[3][4] On January 30, 2018, The CW officially ordered the pilot.[5] The series was greenlit on May 11, 2018.[6]

In the Dark is the first CW primetime series to carry Descriptive Video Service audio, though The CW, as a minor network, is not required to have any DVS provisions under the regulations for audio description for their affiliates, so the base of stations carrying that track is smaller than other networks where carriage of descriptive video is required. On January 10, 2019, The CW announced the premiere of the series on April 4 at 9 p.m.[7] On April 24, 2019, The CW renewed the series for a second season,[8] that was originally scheduled to premiere on May 28, 2020,[9] however it was moved to premiere date on April 16, 2020.[10] On January 7, 2020, the series was renewed for a third season.[11] On February 3, 2021, The CW renewed the series for a fourth season.[12]

Casting

On March 2, 2018, it was announced that Perry Mattfeld had been cast in the protagonist role of Murphy in the series' pilot, along with Brooke Markham as Jess, Murphy's roommate and best friend, and Keston John as Darnell, a local drug dealer;[13] followed on March 9 with Kathleen York as Joy, Murphy's mother, and Derek Webster as Hank, Joy's husband.[14] Austin Nichols was cast as Dean, a cop with a blind daughter, on March 12.[15] On May 16, 2018, The CW announced that the role of Dean had been recast;[16] with Nichols thereafter replaced by Rich Sommer on July 13, 2018.[17] On September 10, 2019, Matt Murray was cast in a recurring role for the second season.[2]

Criticism over lack of disabled actors

The show received some criticism for casting a sighted actor to play a blind character. British actor James Moore, who plays a disabled character in the soap opera Emmerdale and has a disability himself, argued that disabled actors will always be better placed to play disabled roles due to their life experience.[18] On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, critics worried that the "questionable treatment of physical handicaps may leave some viewers with a dim impression."[19]

During a panel discussion at the Television Critics Association press tour, executive producer Nicky Weinstock defended the choices, claiming that they initially auditioned blind actors, but ultimately cast Perry because she was the best actor for the role.[20]

Filming

Filming on the pilot began on March 12, 2018,[21] in Toronto, Ontario, Canada;[22] and wrapped on March 28.[21] Principal photography on season 1 began on August 8, 2018, and ended on December 21, 2018.[23] Principal photography for the second season began on August 19, 2019 and ended on January 24, 2020 in Toronto and Cambridge,[24] Ontario, Canada.[25] Filming for the series' third season began on November 2, 2020 and is scheduled to conclude on April 21, 2021.[26]

Bryant's wife, Gayle, rescinds a donation she made to Murphy's parents, driving a wedge between her and her mother Joy, who has given up trying to help her. Out of guilt, Murphy agrees to take a receptionist's job in her family's seeing dog school until she can pay them back. Incensed that no one believes her about Tyson, Murphy takes it upon herself to find him and has his phone's GPS tracked so she can find it.
