ABOUT THE SHOW

PRETTY HARD CASES is a fun and honest portrayal of two radically different female detectives in their early 40s. The action-packed series follows Guns and Gangs detectives Sam Wazowski (Meredith MacNeill) and Kelly Duff (Adrienne C. Moore.) By day, they are heroes in their particular way: skilled, tough, determined, and entertaining, fighting to do good in a broken system. But by night, they’re both grappling with loneliness, dysfunctional families, screwed-up love lives, and a sense that their professional ambitions may not be totally in line with their personal needs. Their friendship could help to balance each other out if only they didn’t drive one another utterly insane.

Season 3 of PRETTY HARD CASES finds a miserably demoted Sam and a deeply undercover Kelly reuniting to win their way back into the OCE after eight long months apart. Although their professional relationship has never been stronger, Sam and Kelly are going to need to prove they’re worthy of the department’s top cases to a new and exacting Unit Commander. Still, the pair of detectresses have each other’s backs as they navigate big changes in their personal lives: Sam revisits a past romance with her ex, Steve, while Kelly is finally seeing how far things can go with Nathan. Just as things seem to be falling into place, a deadly new drug starts to appear on the streets of Toronto. Now Sam and Kelly must take down a gang of power-hungry gamers to stop the insidious drug at its source.

The series is created by Tassie Cameron (Mary Kills People, Ten Days in the Valley, Rookie Blue, The Robber Bride) and Sherry White (Little Dog, Frontier, Ten Days in the Valley, Rookie Blue).
