Inspector Rex
A rare hound, no bones about it!
Created by Peter Hajek, Peter Moser
On ORF 1
A long-running European procedural built on the warmth of an unlikely partnership between a detective and his dog, where cases resolve weekly within a fundamentally reassuring format.
After his handler is killed, police dog Rex teams up with recently-divorced inspector Richard Moser to investigate crimes and solve mysteries on the streets of Vienna. And they sometimes get help from their two-legged friend, Inspector Stockinger.
