On Citytv, Syndication
A globe-trotting adventure series built on treasure hunts and artifact recovery, balancing action and humor with a capable, charismatic female lead and a reliable episodic reset.
Sydney Fox is a professor and globe-trotting "relic hunter" who looks for ancient artifacts to return to museums and/or the descendants of the original owner. She is aided by her linguistic assistant Nigel and occasionally by her somewhat air-headed secretary Claudia. She often ends up battling rival hunters seeking out artifacts for the money.
