Gianniotti plays cynical, demoted detective Ellis, who finds himself forced to work with an ingenious con woman called Max (played by Morgan), with the pair using their unique skillsets to solve crimes.

Originally slated for broadcast in the fall, the show has had its release brought significantly forward.

Can the unlikely pair gain each other's trust and actually become partners? Read on as our guide breaks down how to watch Wild Cards online from anywhere in the world, including how to watch new episodes for free.
