Dick Wolf owns Tuesdays on CBS and Wednesdays and Thursdays on NBC. However, that was not enough for him. So, he is now expanding to Prime Video with On Call.
On Call is an adrenalized and visceral police drama that follows a rookie and veteran officer duo as they go on patrol in Long Beach, California. Shot with a mixture of hand-held cameras, bodycam and dash-cam footage to create a cinema verité effect, the innovative series explores the morality of protecting and serving a community.
The series stars Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars) as hard-charging but protective veteran officer “Traci Harmon,” who struggles to find her place in the department while training the next generation of officers. Brandon Larracuente (The Good Doctor) stars as “Alex Diaz,” an ambitious rookie who grapples with holding onto his optimistic outlook as he realizes the challenges he’ll face in today’s climate.
I have a feeling this will be the first of many Wolf Entertainment series on Prime Video.
All eight episodes start streaming on January 9th.
