Disappointed in Profucers
LOVE this show. Would have given this a 10 but Not looking forward to Season 8 without Reardon as Charlie
Not bringing Reardon back after his cancer treatment and cure wasn't right. The characters work well together and it is truly a family show.
Hope you change that decision or you may not have an audience to watch a season 9.

Disappointed
This was one of my favorite shows. I am sad that the two stars and namesakes of the show are no longer there. I will be moving on. Sorry to go. I looked forward every week for a new episode and waited patiently for the next season to start. This was a great show. Well written and great acting and realistic. I liked all the actors, it's just not the same without John.
Gets better in the 2nd half of the first season
This is getting better as it goes. I feel like people/networks/studios do not give series a chance anymore. Yes it is a little corny, and the acting is a bit wooden sometimes, but I still like it. I do agree I wish the show would embrace it's location and people more. So many Canadian shows barely acknowledge they are in Canada.
Embrace where you are shooting and from. They all seem to have no accents, unless someone slips, ( like ahboot, for about). I am American. I watch shows from all around the world and I enjoy it. This show is rated G, the dog is great and the plots remind me of old Murder She Wrote, or Rockford Files. That type of murder mystery. There is always a market for that kind of show.
The show is practically 100% Canadian actors. Update- They have embraced being in Canada. The show has improved, and I enjoy it. I am glad it has been renewed for Series 6! Good job.

CityTV is nuts
How could you possibly try to continue without John Reardon? Was it his fault he got cancer?
I could not believe the news that John Reardon was permanently replaced. Seriously, what a bunch of fools at CityTV. Plus, they have the worst streaming app out there, so I guess if they are too ignorant to fix an app then they are too ignorant to know the series will not survive without Reardon.

Family themed mystery series void of shirtless heroes, T&A, foul language, and infused with (wo)man's best friend "Rex".
Nobody said that all hour long TV detective series had to be filmed in California, Chicago and/or New York, and not everyone wants to see shirtless lead detectives (Aka) Steve McGarret from Hawaii Five-O, or hot looking and young detective babes like Kensi Blye from NCIS: Los Angeles. Hudson & Rex provides an alternative to the high testosterone fueled smash/crash/blow 'em all up and make the arrest in the last two minute cookie cutter crime series.
Detective Charlie Hudson (John Reardon) is partnered with his loyal German Shepard dog Rex who adds a lot of family interest to the story lines because most TV viewers are also animal lovers. The scenery in Newfoundland Canada also adds to the value of the weekly storylines and is a perfect backdrop for Hudson & Rex to entertain their viewers each week whilst solving much more simpler crimes than the other big budget crime TV series tailored more for fighting ISIS terrorists, and/or major drug cartels.
Sit back, relax and just enjoy how Hudson & Rex work together to solve crimes in the blue collar province Newfoundland, Canada. A respectable 7 out of 10 rating.

Did you know
- TriviaBased on the Austrian show Kommissar Rex.
- 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.
