Cold Squad is a Canadian police procedural television series that premiered on CTV on January 23, 1998, and ran for seven seasons. Led by Sergeant Ali McCormick (Julie Stewart), a team of homicide detectives from the Vancouver Police Department reopen long-unsolved, or "cold" cases (the titular "Cold Squad"), using present-day forensic technology and psychological profiling to help crack them.
The series was created by Matt MacLeod, Philip Keatley and Julia Keatley, and produced by Keatley MacLeod Productions and Alliance Atlantis in association with CTV Television Network, with the participation of the Canadian Television Fund (Canada Media Fund).[1] Cold Squad is the first prime time national series produced out of Vancouver.[2][3] With seven seasons and 98 episodes it became the longest-running prime time drama series on Canadian television.[3]
The cast of Cold Squad was diverse and changing. Except for Julie Stewart, almost the entire cast was replaced between the second and third seasons, and the series revitalized. The reshaping was meant to attract a younger audience and more male viewers.[4] (Michael Hogan, who played main character Det. Tony Logozzo in Seasons 1 and 2, appeared in the third season two-part opener episode "Deadly Games" but thereafter was gone from the series). Starting with the third season, the "Cold Squad" division was folded into a province-wide task force and its basement setting eliminated. Along with significant revisions of the title sequence, theme music (Seasons 1–2, 3–4, 5–7), new sets, and McCormick's hair colour change from auburn to dirty-blonde, these changes contributed to a considerable reworking of the series. The only character to appear in all seven seasons was Sgt. Ali McCormick.

Development and production
Cold Squad was originally conceived in 1995 as a one-hour series for the Lifetime channel in the United States.[5] Baton Broadcasting became involved in its development in November 1995. Lifetime, however, backed out in mid-1996 and in 1997 the producers partnered with Alliance Atlantis.[6][7]
At the time Cold Squad was developed, the production of television series in Vancouver was heavily dominated by programs made for the United States. When Cold Squad was greenlit it became the first one-hour dramatic series for Canadian television to be produced out of Vancouver.[8][2]
After Baton committed to local production of the series, the producers reached an agreement with Canadian labor union ACFC West to cut the cost of labor on 13 episodes by $225,000 (CAD). With this concession, the overall budget to produce the first season became approximately $12.5 million (CAD).[9]
An unexpected cash crunch by Telefilm Canada's Equity Investment Program affected the corporation's funding for the series and the original order for 13 episodes was reduced to 11 episodes. Funding was adjusted and both Baton and Alliance Atlantis committed to an increased financial investment in the production of Cold Squad, with the budget per episode at $900,000-plus (CAD). Baton thereafter reoriented its involvement to that of being the series' Canadian broadcaster only. Keatley MacLeod Productions retained 75% copyright ownership and the rights to U.S. distribution, and Alliance Atlantis retained 25% ownership with distribution rights in other international territories.[10][7]
Originally scheduled to start on June 16, 1997,[9] filming on Cold Squad began on July 2, 1997,[2] and the new series' scheduled premiere was changed from September 1997 to January 1998.[10][7]

Broadcast
Cold Squad premiered in French Canada on Séries+ as Brigade spéciale,[11][12] on January 23, 1998.
Due to CTV's sporadic scheduling of the final season, the last episodes of the series initially premiered in their French-dubbed versions on Séries+ in 2004, long before the English versions of those episodes eventually aired on CTV in the Spring of 2005 as part of a "crime time" block on Saturday nights.
Within Canada, reruns of Cold Squad aired on Showcase.[13] They were seen intermittently on cable specialty channel Mystery TV,[14][15][16] and also on bravo.[17][18][19]
In 2005, Program Partners/Sony Pictures Television announced that it had acquired the U.S. syndication rights and began airing the show in the United States beginning in September 2006. Cold Squad aired on digital cable channel Sleuth in the U.S. in 2009. The series was then broadcast on digital television networks, such as Tuff TV.[20][21] It began airing on Retro TV in 2011.[22][23] My Family TV added Cold Squad to its roster of programs in 2011[24] and continued to carry the series after rebranding as The Family Channel.[25]
Intellectual property controversy
When U.S. television network CBS announced the premiere of Cold Case for its 2003/2004 schedule, John Doyle of The Globe and Mail wrote: "Cold Case...is a new drama about a blond, female cop (played by Kathryn Morris) who tracks down old, cold cases and faces discrimination because she's a woman. It has no connection with Cold Squad, a Canadian series about a blond, female cop who tracks down old, cold cases and faces discrimination because she's a woman."[26] The likeness to Cold Squad was also noted by other Canadian television critics.[27]
The comparison between Cold Squad and Cold Case became compelling when it was revealed that Meredith Stiehm, the creator of Cold Case, had attended seminars on television writing in April 2002 at the Canadian Film Centre and was informed about the concept of Cold Squad during one of the sessions.[28]
The similarities led Cold Squad series creators Matt MacLeod and Julia Keatley to retain intellectual property attorney Carole Handler, of Los Angeles law firm O'Donnell & Schaeffer, to broker talks with Cold Case producer Jerry Bruckheimer and Warner Bros. MacLeod declined to discuss details but said, "We are deeply concerned [about the shows' similarities]...We're taking the appropriate actions." Confirming that written correspondence was proceeding between the producers of the two shows, Handler stated, "We hope to work out the producers' concerns. This is a real issue. My clients are the creators of the original concept." Recourse in the matter included the option of doing nothing, a settlement involving royalties or a format payment, or a lawsuit.[29][30]
CTV acquired the rights to broadcast Cold Case in Canada and added the series to its Fall 2003 schedule,[31][32] at the same time delaying the premiere of the final season of Cold Squad until Fall 2004.[33][34] The network took advantage of the resemblance between the two shows by scheduling both during the same prime time day of the week, promoting the programming as a crime theme night.[35]
During the 18th Gemini Awards, awards host Seán Cullen cheekily echoed a sentiment about CTV bumping Cold Squad off its fall programming in favor of the new American cop show: "Screw you Cold Case. I love Cold Squad."[36]
When Cold Squad went into syndication in the United States the similitude between it and Cold Case raised eyebrows — until American viewers discovered that Cold Squad was the precedent series.[37]
Home media
Alliance Atlantis released the DVD of Season 1 for Region 1 in Canada only, on September 2, 2003.[38] It became available in the United States in 2009.[39][40] The Region 2 DVD of Season 1 was released in the Netherlands (English audio with Dutch subtitles) by Just Entertainment Bv on March 20, 2012.[41] It became available in the United Kingdom as an import.[42]
The Season 2 DVD for Region 2 was released in the Netherlands (English audio with Dutch subtitles) by Just Entertainment Bv on June 19, 2012.[43] It was made available in the United Kingdom as an import.[44]
Digital distribution of Cold Squad became available in the U.S. as instant streaming on Netflix in 2011.[45] The complete series (98 episodes) was made available as video on demand (VOD) on Hulu in February 2013.[46][47] Amazon Video added Season 1 to its North American library in October 2015,[48] Season 2 in September 2016,[49] and Season 3 in October 2016.[50][51] In the United Kingdom, Amazon Video added Season 2 first to its library in September 2016,[52] followed by Seasons 1 and 3 in October 2016.[53][54][55]
Reception
In a final season interview with Julie Stewart, media and television columnist Bill Brioux wrote: "Cold Squad has consistently been one of the top-rated Canadian-produced TV shows, despite being booted all over CTV's schedule."[56]
Awards and nominations
Cold Squad was nominated for 38 Gemini Awards, 49 Leo Awards, one Directors Guild of Canada award, and two Writers Guild of Canada awards during its seven-season run. The series won seven Gemini Awards, including Julie Stewart for "Best Performance by an Actress in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role" (2002), Garry Chalk for "Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Supporting Role in a Dramatic Series" (2002 and 2001), and Tamara Craig Thomas for "Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Supporting Role in a Dramatic Series" (2001).
