Plan B is a Canadian television drama series, that premiered on CBC Television on February 27, 2023.

An adaptation of the French-language Québécois series Plan B [fr] which premiered on Ici Radio-Canada Télé in 2017, the series is an anthology centred on a mysterious agency that allows people to travel back in time to change their lives, with each season telling a different self-contained story.

Premise

The first season stars Patrick J. Adams as Phillip, a man who is offered the opportunity to go back in time to make different choices in life to salvage his marriage to Evelyn (Karine Vanasse) and his career after a major personal setback.

The second season will star Vinessa Antoine as Mia Coleman, a police officer who wants to change her actions after her intervention in a domestic dispute between Paul (Vincent Leclerc) and Keri (Sarah Booth) Whitman goes disastrously wrong. The second season of the English series is adapted from the third, rather than the second, season of the French series, and will see two actors, Leclerc and Patrick Emmanuel Abellard as Mia's police partner, reprise the same roles they played in French.
