BURIED IN THE BACKYARD SEASON 6, FEBRUARY 7 AT 8PM ET/PT

UNIVERSAL CITY, CA – January 8, 2026 –  Oxygen, the go-to destination for high-quality, true-crime programming, is set to debut part two of Buried in the Backyard season six with eight new episodes beginning Saturday, February 7th at 8pm ET/PT.  

Buried in the Backyard unearths haunting stories of ordinary people who fall victim to unimaginable crimes that have been deliberately concealed by perpetrators, sometimes for years, in hopes that their actions remain forever undiscovered. Season six continues with complex investigations into unsuspecting victims who’ve found themselves on the wrong side of a killer, delving into the disturbed minds of those willing to go to extremes to bury the truth. From the bleak silence of snow‑covered fields to the eerie isolation of murky swamps, and from the dense, shadowed woods to the deceptive tranquility of a suburban yard, Buried in the Backyard explores the overlooked places where the most twisted crimes unfold—often just out of sight and far too close to home. 

Buried in the Backyard is produced by Lionsgate Alternative Television, with David Garfinkle, Jay Renfroe, Bob Kusbit, and Billie Speer serving as executive producers. Bobby Munster will co-executive produce.
