Rush Hour is an American police procedural sitcom developed by Blake McCormick and Bill Lawrence that is based on the popular film franchise of the same name created by Ross LaManna. Similar to the films, the series follows Detective Carter, a radical LAPD detective, and Detective Lee, a by-the-book detective from Hong Kong, as they are forced into forming an unlikely partnership. CBS placed a series order on May 8, 2015. The show premiered on March 31, 2016.
On May 16, 2016, CBS canceled the show after one season. On May 26, 2016, CBS removed the show from its schedule; however, they later announced the show would return on July 23, 2016, to burn off the remaining episodes. The series finale aired on August 20, 2016.
Detective Lee's sister Kim visits him at Didi's home and gives him a tip regarding trafficked women being held by the Quantou. The investigation leads to one of the lead enforcers of the organization, who is also the head's son, whom they manage to capture. But before they can get him to talk, a faction of Quantou members infiltrate the L.A.P.D. to supposedly break him out, Kim being one of them. Although the detectives ultimately manage to take down the Quantou members, they are unable to prevent the son from being killed in his interrogation room. They are able, however, to locate and free the trafficked women.
The series premiered on CBS in the United States on March 31, 2016. It aired on E4 in the United Kingdom on April 19, 2016 and debut on the Seven Network in Australia on June 9, 2016.
Among the locations used for filming the series were three places in the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California: Roscoe Boulevard in Canoga Park, and two locations in Studio City: Universal Inn on Ventura Boulevard, and Vista Pointe II Apartments on Aqua Vista Street.
