‘Hudson & Rex’ Season 7 Sets U.S. Premiere Date — Watch Trailer (VIDEO)

Hudson & Rex Season 7 is coming to the United States this summer.

TV Insider has learned exclusively that the seventh season of the hit procedural series will premiere in the U.S. on Thursday, July 17, at 8/7c, with back-to-back episodes, on UPtv. Watch a teaser above for a look at the adventures to come for the police/K9 partnership, including new faces (a special investigator), new chases, and new cases.

The action-packed, family-friendly procedural, which premiered in 2019 and airs first in Canada, continues to follow the adventures of Rex, an extraordinary K9 German Shepherd, and the dedicated team of the St. John’s Police Department’s Major Crimes Unit as they solve cases. With Detective Charlie Hudson (John Reardon), forensics expertise of Dr. Sarah Truong (Mayko Nguyen), Superintendent Joe Donovan’s (Kevin Hanchard) leadership, and tech specialist Jesse Mills (Justin Kelly), the team tackles the most complex and thrilling cases each week — always with Rex at the center of the action.

In Season 7, Rex takes on more challenging investigations alongside his trusted colleagues as they unravel a string of high-stakes crimes. From a bizarre death by bee stings to a best man found at the bottom of the Atlantic and a mass poisoning at a local pub, the team ventures further afield to uncover the truth behind each mystery.

As Charlie says in the trailer, “You gotta believe in Rex.” And the video does a great job of showing why that is.

Shaftesbury and Pope Productions Ltd. produces Hudson & Rex in association with Citytv, a division of Rogers Sports & Media, and Beta Film GmbH. Executive producers are Christina Jennings, Scott Garvie, Lisa Porter, Liz Levine, Oliver Bachert, Friedemann Goez, Cal Coons, John Reardon, and Sherri Davis.

    I love Hudson and Rex it is my favorite show on TV. I cried when I found out that Diesel passed away. I felt sorry for his trainer and friend Sherri. Can't wait for the new season to start.

    I'm disappointed. I only pay for uptv to watch Hudson and Rex. I was heartbroken about Diesel and now Charlie might not be on the show any more? Good, clean tv shows are hard to find

    Is John Reardon not going to be on Hudson & Rex anymore? This isn’t going to be same show without him!! Very disappointing. When will we see new episodes? Love this show and was heartbroken to learn of Von Diesel’s death. When will his nephew take his place? Love the show truly. Need answers please don’t keep fans guessing!!

    This is Johns last season, not his choice, and after fans who care about what is happening, did some digging, found that after enquiring about the situation on shaftburys IG they deleted them and those expressing they not watching without Charlie. Sherri has been busy gasslighting myself and others on the fb page, and a former crew member just confirmed the production and crew created a toxic atmosphere.They declined to come back to work for them as they were done with the poor behaviour. Change.org has a petition up for anyone to sign requesting John come back.It is sickening to treat a fellow human like that. Shame on the show runners and all who enable thrm

      Really? Do you think the cast and crew are free to discuss the upcoming season’s plans with fans? Take a deep breath, stop antagonizing folks, and see what develops. Bottom line? It’s simply a TV show, and not reality!

        Some legit digging and plenty of ex crew members and John himself confirmed he was not asked back, stop trying to create a narrative just to suit your arse licking the production. No one was discussing anything they can't. Why don't you take a deep breath and STOP trying to boil my piss

      He had medical leave for toncil cancer, then after hexwas cleared, the production ghosted him and never asked him back, confirmed after a fan asked his wife megan in a youtube comment, that he was not asked back, alot of fans found their questions and enquiries, about Johns absence and statements thst they wont watch without the titular charactor deleted. Sherri gasslighted these fans on fb. A former crew member told a little tale of toxicity, and Sherris power trips on reddit.

        I say let it go. These productions love jerking fans around thinking it increases ratings. My guess is they plan to run this new Mark character around for awhile with Sarah and Rex, and then Charlie will re-surface. Betcha Rex finds him. I’m also guessing this Mark guy is a bad guy and related to Hudson being MIA. There’s no point in trying to get anyone attached to the show to fess up as they’ve probably signed NDAs. Hang in there! It’s such a great show!!!

    I am so sorry Diesel died. I think it will be okay for his nephew and other o replace him. But the life of the show is low without John Reardon. The other three people actors are great with him, but the episodes without Reardon lose a lot of "life'. Did the lose great writers, too? I want Reardon back and if they changed writers they need the original writers, too. I hope those who made the change(s) do not kill the show for a very bad decision.

    We're just catching up with Hudson & Rex here in Australia & it's a great show.

    I'd say the Canadian version of "Kommissar/Inspector Rex" is the best one I've seen?

    RIP Diesel. It must if been devastating for Sherri & the entire cast & crew when he passed away (as it was for all of us) but he will always be remembered. His nephews have very big paws to fill but under Sherri's guidance I'm sure they'll be up for the task?

    Looking forward to the new season arriving "Down Under" soon?

    We all think that about Mark, but if you just bothered to do your homework, they did John Dirty and let him go when he was fighting cancer.No we are not letting it go, what they did to John was a low and the producers do not deserve the ratings they crave, their IG deletes/ hides all enquiries about Charlie/John far too many fans are complaining about it. They are throwing away 7 years of Johns input. They cannot come clean about what is happening, Sherri has done nothing but gasslight myself and others. "Betcha Rex finds him" So a dog can pay for a plane ticket, or just wonder onto a plane, or is able to travel to Beleze on his own without anyone raising an eyebrow????

    Shaftesbury and Pope Productions' executives don't deserve to produce Hudson & Rex after what they did to John Reardon. How callous!!! AND how stupid!!! Did they really think the public would stand for their disgraceful decision to fire John? Wake up. I'm another fan of the show who won 't watch Season 8. I'll wait for Season 9 and John is back on the show.
