"Detective Charles Nieuwendyk is back.

Detective Charles Nieuwendyk returns for a second season as a professor-turned-undercover agent investigating new mysteries at a Bay Area college. The first season used an undercover nursing home plot set in Nob Hill, featuring abundant San Francisco b-roll, cable cars and a sightseeing Episode 7 tour from Russian Hill to the Giants' stadium. Season 2 centers on fictitious Wheeler College, where controversy erupts after a sleazy tech mogul fuels a funding influx; Mills College in Oakland serves as the stand-in. Filming in San Francisco is reduced, but the show still includes city-representative scenes such as Charles and Mona sharing Irish coffees in a Buena Vista–style bar.
