TV show description:
This action comedy series is based on the Rush Hour feature film franchise. It follows a maverick LAPD detective and a by-the-book detective from Hong Kong who knock heads when they are forced to partner together.
Detective Lee (Jon Foo) is a reserved and honorable master martial artist with lightning-fast moves. He comes to Los Angeles to avenge his sister’s alleged death and learn more about her connection to a Chinese organized crime ring.
Meanwhile, Detective Carter (Justin Hires) is a wisecracking cop who plays by his own rules. Carter’s boss, Captain Lindsay Cole (Wendie Malick), often gets frustrated with him she knows he’s a brilliant detective who gets results.
Attempting to help the two partnered detectives get along is Sergeant “Didi” Diaz (Aimee Garcia), Carter’s friend and former partner who doesn’t hesitate to call him out on his antics.
Secretly aiding them as an informant is Carter’s cousin, Gerald (Page Kennedy). He’s a low-level offender who runs with a tough crowd.
Even as their cultures clash and tempers flare, Carter and Lee can’t deny they make a formidable team. They’ll also grudgingly admit that sometimes an unlikely pairing can make for a great partnership.
Episode #13 — Familee Ties
When a meeting of rival Los Angeles gang lords is orchestrated by the Quantou gang, Carter and Lee must infiltrate it to find Lee’s sister Kim and save her from going further with the Quantou.
First aired: August 20, 2016.
What do you think? Do you like the Rush Hour TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Our whole family would watch this show. Always someone smarter than the rest of us making decisions. Not
NO Rush Hour should not have been cancelled! It was a show the whole family could watch and had great characters with wonderful humor. I am so sick of networks cancelling these great shows in favor of yet another stupid reality show. I will be glad when that awful reality show fad passes and networks keep quality entertainment for a change. Back to Hallmark Channel for me. At least you can count on family friendly entertainment there.
I totally agree. Loved the show, loved the cast, loved the story lines
“Rush Hour” was another one of my good little entertaining time wasters that was cancelled. If I like a TV series it seems to be the kiss of death, like I killed “Almost Human”; “Backstrom”; Battle Creek”; “The Good Guys”; “Neighbors” and “Galavant”. “MacGyver” starts just as good as “Rush Hour” did.
I agree with you totally battle creek was real good and so was Backstrom I was hoping someone else picked them up I like MacGyver wonder how long before that get cancelled? they just don’t give these shows long enough or they put them on at crappy time but I always watch em the next day if I miss them. to bad we couldn’t boycott cbs
Justin Hires is now in MacGyver so I guess we won’t see Rush Hour back unless he has time to do both! MacGyver isn’t to bad but I really liked Rush Hour.
That is true. Justin Hires is on MacGyver which is a good show!!! BUT… I must be honest and say that I’m not too crazy about Lucas Till who plays MacGyver!!! He’s a good actor but to me he’s just not the right guy to play MacGyver!! My favorite characters are Bozer played by Justin Hires, of course, and Riley played by Tristin Mays!!! They are great actors and also have great chemistry acting together!!! They make their friendship believable!!! ☺
Cancelled! I’m really disappointed!
Please keep this on the air. Give it a chance. I love the characters!. Please please keep it.
It was a great family show and just plan funny
Our entire family loved this show and could not wait to see the next. This was one of the few shows that was actually a family show. Disappointed in the network for its cancellation. It needs to be reinstated.
I loved this show . . . Great characters, great stories, and one of the few network shows I would always watch. I would love to see it return.
Rush Hour is a great show and shouldn’t be compared to the movie. I love the movie and I live the show. Why is it that new shows are given so little time to jive and get in a groove? Please reconsider and don’t cancel yet another good show.
Rush Hour should not be canceled. At least you had a comedy to laugh at and I loved the characters
I loved the show. I was really hoping it would get renewed.
Why does CBS keep canceling shows that interests me? That’s really annoying.
I totally agree. What in the world makes you want to cancel this great show?
Please bring back rush hour
Another reason network tv looses market share. I liked the show. Hope someone else picks it up. Liked seeing aimee garcia again.
I love this show
Absolutely Loved this show. Please pring it back.
