Trivia:
The series was originally intended to be set in Seattle, but city officials asked the producers to change so as to not give their town a reputation as a crime scene. Thus, the fictional city of Cascade came into being. The only remnant of Seattle was an undeleted reference to the Seattle Supersonics in the pilot episode. The Cascade basketball team became the Jaguars in later episodes. more

The best show.....*ever*, 26 September 1999
Author: Shelle-5

This is one of the most enjoyable shows I've seen. It's real family entertainment, something that Mom and Dad can safely watch with the kids and grandparents and all the family will find something to entertain them.

The only crime is that U.P.N had ditched probably their best show ever.

Thank God for the Sci Fi channel in the U.S, may the marriage between them and The Sentinel be a long and productive one.
