Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The series was filmed in Toronto but rarely acknowledged its Canadian setting, a common 1980s tactic to appeal to U.S. syndication markets.
Adderly anticipated later 'deconstructed spy' shows like Burn Notice by two decades, proving Canadian TV was ahead of its time and nobody noticed.
