The Line

The Line follows a collection of cops, criminals and everybody in between as they intersect with the rhythms of a combustible suburban wasteland. At the centre of this world are Max (Ron White) and Donny (Daniel Kash), two cops who are as morally ambiguous as the criminals they pursue. Their paths intertwine with Carlos (Cle Bennett), a mid-level drug dealer with an anxiety problem.

In this world there are no heroes or villains, only intimacy and the constant biting humour of what life deals its players. The cast includes renowned actors such as Linda Hamilton and Sharon Lawrence. The series received three 2009 Gemini Awards nominations, including “Best actor in a continuing leading role”.
