Real People, Real Stories: Investigation Discovery Announces Powerful New Slate of Original Content for 2016-2017 Upfront Season

#1 Network for Women Debuts Premiere Programming Nearly Every Night

(New York, NY) - Investigation Discovery (ID), America's leading mystery and suspense network and the #1 network for women 25-54 in cable season-to-date, today announced a powerful new slate of world premiere programming for the 2016-17 upfront season, including 13 new series and 16 returning hits. Featuring stories of heartache and triumph, the new slate delivers more of what viewers love about ID - real stories about real people presented from a deeply personal perspective.

ID has just come off its best year in network history, closing out fourth quarter as the #1 network in cable for total day delivery of W25-54; continuing its four-year run as the #1 network for length of tune in all of television; and finishing the year as the #7 network in all of cable for total day delivery of P25-54. Driving this incredible success was more than 650 hours of original content in 2015, with 21 separate series averaging one million viewers or more. In 2016, ID will match the 650 hours of premieres with nearly every night of prime - for the entire year - featuring at least one new hour.

"With the explosion of interest in crime programming, Investigation Discovery has been an unstoppable success and the one and only destination, 24/7, for these incredible, high-stakes stories of mystery and suspense," said Henry Schleiff, Group President, ID. "ID has, arguably, the largest volume of primetime premiere content in all of television, and we will meet our viewers' insatiable appetite for high-quality, riveting stories with our signature blend of programming that informs, entertains and inspires."

Anchoring the upfront line-up is the debut of PEOPLE MAGAZINE INVESTIGATES, a partnership with the entertainment weekly featuring headline-making crime stories directly from the pages of People and featuring the journalists who first landed the interviews; and, in early 2017, the provocative mini-series HARD EVIDENCE: OJ IS INNOCENT from executive producer Martin Sheen, which will have viewers questioning everything they thought they knew about this infamous trial. In addition, ID heads south with the debut of MURDER CHOSE ME, featuring Shreveport homicide detective Rod Demery, and THE DETECTIVES CLUB: NEW ORLEANS, profiling a group of retired Big Easy detectives sharing their most haunting cases.

ID's slate of emotional and can't-look-away content includes:
