Hot Fuzz meets Haven, Aussie-style: A lighthearted, supernatural cop show set in a fictional Australian seaside community called Coolum. A young constable arrives to take the night shift, answering calls from the residents who apparently have some special problems at night. His girlfriend dumps him; his office is a beat-up trailer; and his side-kick is an elderly gentleman who favors a Dungeons-and-Dragons style board game. "It can get pretty weird around here when the sun goes down." (imdb)

Comparisons to "Hot Fuzz" miss the mark: this is a show about eccentric small towns and how this ultimately is not just interesting but rejuvenating. A broken man gets off a bus and discovers a new weird world, and grows up in the process, becoming a whole character. It runs a complete story arc and ends on the perfect note. Of all the stuff I have seen on television, this one may warm my heart the most.
