    Storyline

    Edit
    Sergeant Ruawai Maaka of the Wellington Police enlists the aid of Officers Minogue and O'Leary to tackle paranormal events in New Zealand's capital city. In a police reality show style, the 6 part series follows these kiwi cops as they investigate cases such as the demon possession of a teenager, a noise complaint at a haunted house and a blood bank robbery. —Paul Yates (Producer)

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Karen O'Leary and Mike Minogue ended up playing characters called O'Leary and Minogue in the original film because director Jemaine Clement hadn't come up with any names for their characters, and when Karen O'Leary met him on set he asked her what her character should be called. He decided that her real surname sounded really 'cop' so they decided to use it, and they also decided to use Mike Minogue's surname as well.

    10/10
    Pure kiwi fun
    Think Police 10/7 mixed with Buffy. It's hilariously funny and very much caters to the kiwi sense of humour. The continual deadpan and kiwi "inside jokes" make this one of the best New Zealand original shows in a VERY long time. Short and sweet and doesn't take itself too seriously, definitely worth a watch. Safer communities together.
