This show aired late at night and received very little fan-fare inspite of an excellent cast and good writers. T J Hooker ran until 1986, and Hill Street Blues ran through 1987. So its safe to say that this Canadian production without the mega million advertiser's from the states had hard competition not because of content or the fame status of its actors but because money talks baby. After the seventies; George Kennedy-The Blue Knight, and the full series of Police Story the whole of major networks shifted towards Hill Street soap opera's and mega star grandiosity episodes. The budget was managable for Night Heat and as was mentioned earlier the newness of the series actors gave space to evolve thier characters without the pre supposed personalities. The only regret seems to be the lack of high quality in the saving of all these episodes. Thats Television.
