Description
A daily reality hit, these action-packed re-enactments of real-life crimes show local cops handling everything from gritty murder cases to quirky misdemeanours.
With a small team of actors playing likeable neighbourhood police officers, The Beat is a low-cost ratings smash, with over 120 episodes produced in 2014 alone. A typical show features three distinct storylines, such as an investigation into a brutal killing, a spate of burglaries involving an organised criminal gang, and a lighter case, following an elderly drink driver causing mayhem on his mobility scooter. Importantly, every story is rooted in reality, and based on real world events.
Full of emotional human stories, each episode highlights the day-to-day challenges facing six down-to-earth street cops. With countless crimes to tackle, no two days are the same on The Beat.
