About Port City P.D.

PORT CITY P.D., a 24-minute, episodic police drama produced by Eleven Bravo Productions. PCPD was originally made for an internet audience, accumulating over four million downloads.

Now, Eleven Bravo Productions has teamed up with Creative Entertainment & Media, Inc. moved the show forward to television overseas and recently to specific satellite TV markets in the US.

At the Port City Police Department, cases are funneled from first-line detectives to a dead-end detective pool when solutions are not easily found for seemingly petty cases. Despising where they are (in their lives and their careers), the once "top notch" detectives' true colors are revealed as their cases turn into something much more than vandalism and stolen property.

Completely character driven, PORT CITY P.D. is not just about the cases, but more about the everyday lives of these detectives. Each character is unique and has their own way of dealing with the commonplace stress of being part of a police department. Some handle it well, others, not so good. Because they are on the lower end of the detective unit, they must prove themselves time and time again, intelligence sometimes being their most powerful weapon. But when all else fails, it’s no holds barred.

On May 25, 2009, Port City P.D. premiered on the BSkyB (British Sky Broadcasting) Network throughout 9 million households in England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and the Channel Islands with spillover in France, Spain and Italy.

Port City P.D. is expected to launch in the rest of Europe within the next two months through the Global Broadcasting Company on the America Unleashed Network reaching 120 million households. Countries include: England, Germany, France, Northern Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro as well as the United Arab Emirates.

Now, the show is heading back to the states. On January 11, 2009 Port City P.D. will air in the United States on Tuff TV, a channel broadcast in places such as Dallas, Little Rock, Wichita and Key West. It will also begin airing on AMGTV, another satellite network, on Jan. 26. If the shows goes well here, the crew will get back together to film a second season.

The show will be better than ever because technology has caught up with it. Joe Stauffer and Broken Wings Productions re-edited and color corrected the show. Nino Ninkovic and Dave Schreinner re-worked the sound design.

Producers are working to have DVDs ready by the summer or fall of next year.
