''LA Heat'' is an action series created by Joseph Merhi and Richard Pepin of PM Entertainment, Inc. The show revolves around two LAPD detectives.
The series began filming in 1996 in Southern California, in locations that included LosAngeles (also Long Beach, Beverly Hills and [[HollywoodCalifornia Hollywood]]) and SanDiego. However, because it didn't have the backing of a major US network, it was not picked up for domestic distribution. Instead it was sold overseas, and it became popular in Europe. Due to PM Entertainment's financial troubles, the production ended in 1998 after two seasons (and 48 episodes). On March 15, 1999, the show finally made its US premiere when it was sold to TNT cable network. The episodes were shown on weekdays at 6 PM, and its first run concluded on May 19, 1999. When TNT's contract to run the show expired, the show disappeared from the airwaves and has not aired on US TV ever since.
It follows the classic BuddyCopShow format. Naturally, the detectives are a SaltAndPepper OddCouple:
* Chester "Chase" [=McDonald=] (Wolf Larson) has been on the force for 7 years. A risk-taker, he likes living on the edge and is passionate about his work. When he's not busy keeping LA safe, he makes metal sculptures which he shows at a local art gallery. Though he's a born leader, he often needs the guidance of someone with his partner's experience to keep him out of trouble. That partner is...
* ...August Brooks (Steven Williams), a Vietnam War veteran who has been on the force for 16 years. In his youth he was a promising boxer, but after discovering that his manager and promoter were embezzling funds from fellow boxers, and forced him to throw his first pro fight, he quit and joined the police force. Outside that, he runs the Hoover Street Youth Boxing Center for underprivileged children in an effort to try to keep them out of gangs.
Also prominently featured were their girlfriends:
* August is HappilyMarried to Kendra Lee Brooks (Renee Tenison) for five years in the pilot episode. She works at August's youth center, and is known by all the kids who frequent it, and she helps them with their problems from time to time.
* Chase's first girlfriend was Jodi Miller (Dawn Radenbaugh-Eason). She worked at an art gallery where Chase's metal sculptures were displayed. Having never been happy with Chase's dangerous job, she constantly tried to pressure him to quit his job and focus exclusively on his sculpting. In Episode 19, she got a job offer to run an art gallery in [[DFWMetroplex Dallas]] and pressured him even more to quit his job and come with her. Chase refused, insisting they could work things out, but ultimately, she left without him.

!!The franchise provides examples of:
* BolivianArmyCliffhanger: The final episode, with Chase being wounded after a stand-off with crime lord Bobby Cole.
** A third season was planned in 2000, possibly implying he was intended to survive. However, because financing couldn't be secured, the season was never made.
* CoolCar: The cars driven by Chase: Acura NSX and Porsche 911 (993) Carrera Cabrio. Even a one-off [[http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_328855-Bizzarrini-BZ-2001-1992.html Bizzarini BZ-2001]] in the pilot episode, that's featured in the poster.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Literally redefined: during its second season, the show replaced Baywatch on the #1 spot in Germany.
* HappilyMarried: August and Kendra.
* OddCouple:
** The older, more experienced August is more a ByTheBookCop, while the younger Chase is a loose cannon CowboyCop.
** Chase enjoys health food, while August likes to annoy him by eating hamburgers and bacon.
* OfficerOHara: Chase.
* PutOnABus: Jodi after Episode 19.
* SaltAndPepper: Chase and August.
* StockFootage: Many of the show's big budget car chases and explosions were sourced from scenes from PM Entertainment's feature films.
