The Big Easy - Season 1

Season 1

Laissez le Bon temp rouler... let the good times roll!

Nothing is simple in The Big Easy, the setting for Season One of this sexy, action-packed crime series. In New Orleans steamy Latin Quarter, passions run as hot as Tabasco, loyalty has the life expectancy of a Rum Hurricane and the dark waters of the Louisiana bayou tell no tales.

Based on the hit 1987 film, THE BIG EASY stars Tony Crane as Remy McSwain, a freewheeling Cajun cop not above committing a crime to solve one, and Susan Walters as beautiful but dedicated federal agent Anne Osborne, who will go the distance to uphold the law... even as far as jumping into Remy's bed.
