Street Justice is a Canadian-American action crime drama series starring Carl Weathers and Bryan Genesse. The series began airing in syndication in 1991, and was canceled in 1993 after two seasons.

Synopsis

[edit]

The series revolves around U.S. Army Special Forces Soldier-turned-metropolitan police detective, Adam Beaudreaux (Weathers) and Grady Jameson (Genesse), a Canadian martial arts expert. As a child, Grady saved Adam's life when he was wounded-in-action during the Vietnam War. Grady's parents, who were Canadian missionaries, were killed when the Viet Cong burned down their village. After the encounter, the two formed a bond and were together in Vietnam for 10 months until Adam was sent back to the United States and discharged from service. Adam promised Grady that he would come back for him. In 1972, Adam became a police officer and began a 20-year search for the boy who had saved his life. In the intervening years, Grady was forced to steal to survive on the mean streets in Vietnam. He was eventually arrested and imprisoned for 10+12 years. Grady learned martial arts in prison in order to stay alive. Adam and Grady are finally reunited in 1991 when Grady finds his way to the U.S. and shows up at Adam's place while in pursuit of the man he holds responsible for his parents' murder.

Adam puts Grady to work at the bar he co-owns with his friend, Malloy (Charlene Fernetz), the daughter of his deceased partner. Grady soon begins helping Adam on cases using the knowledge he picked up living on the streets along with his martial arts training.
