In January 2014, Content Television secured the international distribution rights to 19-2, a gritty police drama from Canada’s Bravo network. The series, set in Montreal, follows the lives of two police officers, Nick and Ben, as they navigate the high-stress world of urban policing. 19-2 is known for its realistic portrayal of the emotional and psychological toll of law enforcement, with a focus on the personal and professional struggles of its characters.

The deal with Content Television was significant, as it marked the show’s expansion into global markets. 19-2 had already gained critical acclaim in Canada for its compelling narrative and nuanced performances, particularly by its lead actors, and it was expected to attract a similar reception internationally.

The show’s success was not just attributed to its gripping plot, but also to its ability to explore themes such as loyalty, camaraderie, and the moral dilemmas faced by police officers on a daily basis. With its intense and character-driven approach, 19-2 quickly earned a devoted fan base, and the international distribution deal promised to further broaden its reach.

As part of the deal, Content Television would be responsible for bringing the series to various countries, expanding its availability beyond the Canadian market. This move demonstrated the growing global interest in high-quality, character-driven dramas, especially those that explore complex societal issues.

In the years that followed, 19-2 continued to resonate with audiences worldwide, and its international success helped solidify it as one of the standout dramas of its time.
