- TriviaTranslating some of the terms and phrases used in the series for American viewers: A "door knock" is a neighborhood canvas, where police knock on doors to locate witnesses to the crime. A "death knock" is the notification of the next-of-kin of the death of a victim. To "root" someone is to have sex with them, while "rooted" means someone is tired. Similarly, "stuffed" means being tired, but telling someone to get stuffed is similar to telling them to go screw themselves. A "reggo" is a vehicle registration, which reveals the owner. A "shottie" is the term used for a shotgun.
When confronting a suspect, the police do not yell "Freeze!" as they do on American cop shows. Instead, they yell "Police! Don't move!".
- Crazy creditsAt the beginning of each programme, a title card is shown that reads "No greater honour will ever be bestowed upon an officer than when they are entrusted with an investigation into the death of a Human Being."

Featured review
I'm a big fan of Homicide life on the street and loved Detroit 187 and other shows like them. If you like those too you will live this. The first show almost lost me. It had really dorky music but a good story line so I watched a few more and fell in love.
This is a very real gritty cop drama. They only delve into the characters personal lives as proprietary. Like with Simon's intricate story line that plays out in a most impressive fashion at the end of season three through the begging of season 4.
The few Aussie shows I have watched before sucked. I thought this was British at first. This could have even done fine on USA TV. I've found it addicting.
