Tru Calling is an American television program, filmed in Vancouver, Canada, which premiered on the Fox Network in October 2003. It ran for two seasons of 26 episodes in total, before being cancelled.
The show's cancellation was officially announced at a press conference in January 2005, but Gail Berman, then president of Fox, insisted the network intended to broadcast the remaining six episodes filmed for the show's second season. Season two of Tru Calling first aired in New Zealand on TV3 beginning February 4 2005, with the final episode shown on March 11, 2005, in Croatia, the following March/April; and, after nearly a year-long hiatus, in the U.S. beginning March 31 2005. In the United Kingdom, the second season began October 12, 2006 on Sky.
The complete series also aired in Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Malaysia, Portugal, Singapore, and Slovakia. DVDs of both seasons have been released in the United States and the United Kingdom. The final episode filmed was never originally broadcast in the U.S. until it was shown on the SCI FI Channel January 21st 2008 as a part of their Tru Calling Marathon.
Tru Davies, a medical grad student in Boston whose grant is suddenly pulled out from under her, takes a job at a local morgue. There, she discovers that she has the power to "re-live" the previous day over again to help the people who wrongly ended up dead. She uses this gift not only to save lives, but to help her trouble-plagued family - her older sister Meredith, a lawyer and drug addict in denial; and her younger, irresponsible, slacker, gambling brother Harrison.
