Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | K9 was a television programme that was built on writer Bob Baker's ownership of the concept of K9, as well as some of the business contacts he had as a consequence of his success with the Wallace and Grommit series of short films. Baker had been trying to leverage his rights to K9 for years, and the robot dog's reintroduction to new audiences in the Doctor Who episode School Reunion allowed him to shop the character to a new generation of producers and would-be financiers. It was produced in Australia by Park Entertainment and Stewart & Wall Entertainment under the auspices of Metal Mutt Productions, Baker's business identity. K9 premiered worldwide between 2009 and 2010, though some countries, like the United States had to wait as late as 2012 for their national debuts.Though made in Australia, it was set in the London of 2050, and involved a new version of the robot dog. It posited a slightly dystopian future in which individuality and free thought was somewhat dampened by a sinister government agency called simply "the Department". Each of the twenty-odd episodes fit loosely into an overall narrative arc that was eventually wrapped up in the finale. |
