Hudson & Rex
Good detectives, great partners.
Created by Ken Cuperus
On Citytv
A procedural crime drama built on the warmth of a detective-and-dog partnership, where the humor comes from their dynamic rather than from the cases themselves.
Detective Charlie Hudson teams up with what he calls his "highly trained law enforcement animal" German Shepherd dog named Rex who he prefers to team up with because he doesn't talk his ear off. Based on the Austrian–Italian series, Kommissar Rex.
