Finally A Cop Show That Is Down To Earth, 25 March 1999
Author: Christopher D. BORDEN (cpborden@uniserve.com) from Fort St. John BC Canada

Hooked since day one and hope that one of our national carriers completes the series. A great import that can hold its head high. This is a series that catches your attention and doesn't need a pile of special effects to keep your interests alive. The characters are believeable and admirable. Long live the "RATS".
