==Show history== |
|||
The show debuted in [[2002]] and followed the cases investigated by a quartet of MHS cruelty investigators, Mark Ramos and Debby MacDonald (on the city's west side) and Shawn Hairston and Keven Jones (on the city's east side). Jones left the MHS during the show's first season and was replaced by former rescue driver Mike Dowe Jr., who became Hairston's partner. Another rescue driver, David McLeod, joined the team in 2004 as an investigator. |
|||
MHS Dispatcher Max Sharpe sometimes fills in for agents on rescue calls or goes out into the field when especially large teams are needed. |
|||
The hospital staff includes doctors Sherine Cece and Patricia Madsen, as well as evaluator Jan Ramos and several other technicians and evaluators. |
|||
Actor [[John Lurie]] narrated most of the early episodes. He has since been replaced by voice actor [[Rodd Houston]] beginning in 2004. |

First-run production ended in [[2006]], though the show continues to be shown in reruns as part of the "Animal Planet Heroes" umbrella. |
