The TV show about the North Shore’s favourite real-life superheroes is coming back for a second season.
Search and Rescue: North Shore season two is currently in production, according to the Knowledge Network, which produced the award-winning first season of the series.
The show first aired in the fall of 2020, gripping audiences with an intimate look at the intense and highly technical operations carried out by North Shore Rescue, the busiest volunteer search and rescue organization in the country.
Search and Rescue went on to receive critical acclaim, winning three Leo Awards, and being nominated for Best Factual Series at the Canadian Screen Awards.
Season two expands in scope, featuring another team, while bringing back familiar faces, says producer Jenny Rustemeyer.
“Because it’s been a couple of years – we didn’t film during COVID – some of the people that you got to meet in the first season, they’ve had babies or they’ve got married and so it’s nice to see their worlds evolving,” Rustemeyer said. “But they’re still doing amazing work and have some really interesting rescues with the new operations that they were working on.”
The upcoming season will capture some of North Shore Rescue’s new capabilities including night hoists, which the province approved in October 2022.
No date has been set for the season two to air, said a spokesperson from the Knowledge Network.
