Year of The Rabbit
Set in Victorian-era London, the series follows Detective Inspector Rabbit, a hardened booze-hound who's seen it all, and his new, hapless, by-the-books partner. While they're investigating a local murder, the lewd but insightful adoptive daughter of the chief of police joins them, becoming the country's first female officer. Together, the trio must fight crime while rubbing shoulders with street gangs, crooked politicians, Bulgarian princes, spiritualists, music hall stars and the Elephant Man.

Show Update
'Year Of The Rabbit' Cancelled At IFC
Roughly 11 months after Year of the Rabbit was picked up for a second season, it appears the decision has been reversed. The UK's Channel 4, which co-produces the series, has opted not to go forward with Season 2.
For its part, IFC - which airs the comedy in the US - is still on-board for a potential second season should they be able to find another partner. So there may still be hope for the show to continue, though no potential suitors have been mentioned at this point.
Year of the Rabbit follows tough veteran Detective Inspector Eli Rabbit, who teams up with two inexperienced partners to investigate murder trials in Victorian London. But their job gets more intriguing when they discover an ancient secret society that has resurfaced and is causing mayhem around the city.
