TURNER & HOOCH

Based on and a continuation of the 1989 film of the same name, created and written by executive-producer Matt Nix, “Turner & Hooch” is an American buddy-cop action-comedy television series and the third overall installment in the eponymous franchise starring Josh Peck, Lyndsy Fonseca, Carra Patterson, and Vanessa Lengies, the first season of which premiered on Wednesday, July 21, 2021, on Disney+.

SEASON DETAILS:

A detective solves crimes with the help of an oversized dog.

Scott is an ambitious U.S. marshal with an OCD streak. Instead of a pet, Scott talks to his Roomba, which careens around an immaculate San Francisco apartment with all the usefulness of the Maytag repairman. He is neat, professional and thoroughly unprepared when his sister Laura (Lyndsy Fonseca) shows up at his door with the latest in a series of Hooches, the reasonably new mastiff left homeless after Scott Senior’s death. Like the original Hooch, this Hooch loves salivating, running in slow motion and destroying property at a clip that, given the location of Scott’s apartment, may be financially prohibitive.

Scott is forced to take Hooch along on rides with his pregnant partner, Jessica (Carra Patterson) and the persistent pup soon runs afoul of their boss (Anthony Ruivivar) and requires assistance from K-9 facility trainer Erica (Vanessa Lengies), who develops such a fast crush on Scott that the writers decided she didn’t need any additional character traits.

Meanwhile, Laura has discovered that even though Scott Senior was just a small-town detective, he’d been accumulating some files on a potentially major case and that his death, attributed to a heart attack, might not have been so natural after all.
