Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe City of St. John's Police Headquarters in the show is actually the Bruneau Centre for Research located on Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador's St. John's campus. Staff and students would see police related signage pop-up ahead of filming on their way to work/class, and the university would email notices to "not be alarmed by the appearance of police presence".
- GoofsHudson states in the first episode that K-9 officers are euthanized if their handler dies and they are not claimed by someone. This is not true. It costs thousands of dollars and years of work to properly train a police dog. Healthy dogs are re-paired with new handlers, and when they are retired, if their current handler does not choose to keep them, they are put up for adoption, the same as any other dog.
- ConnectionsRemake of Kommissar Rex (1994)
Featured review
In all due respect to the negative comments posted here,I found it refreshing to watch a "clean" detective show that wasn't filled with blood, gore, excessive loud gunfire for superficial effect. We should be supportive of Newfoundland content and give the show an opportunity to grow and characters to develop. I watched the Littlest Hobo as child. With the exception of the German Sheppard the synopsis is different. It was based, if memory serves, on a dog who befriends and ex-convict attempting to live a better life.
I don't believe the intent was to produce the series about Newfoundland and/or have the characters speak with a NL accent. A lot of Frontier was filmed here and those characters didn't have a NL accent. There's one thing I don't understanding about NL'rs. Why are we often so critical of our own businesses. I recall quite some rime ago a neighbor went for a pack of cigarettes and instead of supporting the local corner store just down the street, he drove over a kl away to an Irving station (he also paid more). His comment "No way am I going to give Mr. ------- my money.
This has nothing to do with the H&R series. I just wanted to make a point :).
