Season seven of the hit crime mystery series Hudson & Rex premieres in the U.S. on UPtv Thursday, July 17 at 8/7c.

Those hoping to tune in for another season of one of the best crime fighting duo’s harrowing adventures can stream the season premiere through Philo or DirecTV—both of which offer free trials for new subscribers to enjoy.

What is Hudson & Rex about?

For those unfamiliar with the long-running series, Hudson & Rex follows Detective Charlie Hudson (John Reardon), a cunning Major Crimes detective for the St. John’s Police Department, who teams up with an unusual partner—Rex, a former K9 German Shepherd, whose heightened senses keep Charlie hot on the trail of his suspects.

Together, they investigate puzzling crimes, from a kidnapping which reveals a much larger conspiracy at play to an art theft murder which runs deep into the world of high society.

With Charlie’s deft detective work and Rex’s keen canine senses, this crime-fighting pair is unstoppable.

To kick off season seven, Charlie and Rex take on a murder investigation that quickly devolves into a kidnapping. During their scramble, Rex’s nose leads him and Charlie to Bell Island, and right into the middle of a double murder plot.
