The bonds of friendship between the two have always been shown to be tighter than steel, that's why the show was so great.The acting too was always top notch and if life is even remotely fair both Gross and Marciano should have no problem finding other work. My favourite scene however, is at the end of 'The Deal' when, after Fraser is badly beaten by the local Mafia boss, Ray takes revenge on his age old nemesis by humiliating him in front of his subordinates, even though he knows that that action might cost him his life. It's little scenes like that which show up the show as truly great and worthy of more than three seasons. When Ray and Fraser are sat in the hospital at the end of 'Juliet' and Ray speaks out about his childhood romance with the deceased Irene (Incidentally played by 'The Matrix's' Carrie Anne Moss) you can honestly feel his pain and the expression on Frasers face says more than any amount of comforting words could. I admit that the dramatic episodes, such as 'Victoria's Secret' and the magnificent 'Juliet is Bleeding' overwhelm the other, lighter, episodes but that is simply because they are so brilliantly written. Benton Fraser is undeniably one of the greatest characters ever to grace the small screen and his relationship with Ray Vecchio is both touching and humourous. It's the fact that humour and characterisation take first place over gritty realism (Overrated to be honest) that separates it from, well, every other cop show ever made. A mountie, on the trail of his fathers killer, winds up in Chicago where he befriends a streetwise detective and together they solve the crimes, both big and small, of the Windy City. Originality is the key even though it sits within the much copied police genre. All this, in addition to the variety of work, the dynamic working environments and the knowledge that you are making a difference in the community, makes working with the RCMP a rewarding experience.In my opinion this is probably the best TV show ever made, which explains why it didn't last that long. Police Officers also have the support of an employee assistance program, should they need it. There is support available for continuing education and development including opportunities for language training. Personal developmentĪ career with the RCMP provides ample opportunities for promotion, professional development, specialization and personal growth. Both allowances require that certain conditions are met and leave without pay options are also available to our police officers. Maternity allowance lets women police officers receive 93% of their weekly rate of pay for a maximum of 17 weeks, and a parental allowance grants all police officers 93% of their weekly rate of pay for a maximum of 37 weeks.
