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.

Featured review
Long, long time Kommisar Rex fan here. The first episode was a nice tribute to the original show. Sure, it's not the best written (or acted) drama, but neither was the original. It was fun, though, and entertaining enough for my taste. I'm also an old Republic of Doyle fan (as well as Little Dog), so I like playing the find-the-filming-location-on-Google-Maps game. (Hint: MUN) Like I said, it didn't suck. I'll be watching.
