Night Heat is a Canadian police drama series, which aired on CTV from 1985 to 1991. The show also aired on CBS in the United States, and was the first Canadian-produced drama series to air on an American network. CBS aired the series as part of CBS Late Night, a late night block of drama programming.
The show starred Allan Royal as journalist Tom Kirkwood, who chronicled the nightly police beat of detectives Kevin O'Brien (Scott Hylands) and Frank Giambone (Jeff Wincott). The cast also included Susan Hogan, Wendy Crewson, Sean McCann, Louise Vallance, and Clark Johnson. Current with her work on Night Heat, Vallance was starring in the children's series Zoobilee Zoo, playing a very different character.
Night Heat has since aired in reruns on TVtropolis and DejaView.
The US rights to the series are currently held by CBS, with CBS Television Distribution (inherited from Worldvision Enterprises, Paramount Domestic Television, and CBS Paramount Domestic Television) holding the TV rights, and CBS Home Entertainment (distributed by Paramount) holding the DVD rights. Echo Bridge Entertainment (acquired from Alliance Atlantis) owns the Canadian rights.
