Our latest episode looks at the rise and fall of the Martial Law TV series, and what really went on behind the scenes.

What started as a fresh mix of Hong Kong action and a Saturday night cop show quickly became something far more complicated: the series found early success, only to be reshaped, reworked, and pushed in a completely different direction.
