Copper grabbed 403,200 Canadians for its Sunday night premiere on Showcase at 9 p.m., making it the top specialty program of the night (2+), according to numbers from BBM Canada provided by Shaw Media.

The period crime drama is produced in association with Shaw Media and BBC America and was shot in Toronto earlier this year. It follows an Irish-American cop, played by Tom Weston-Jones, who works the notorious Five Points Neighbourhood in 19th-century New York, and his quest to investigate his wife’s disappearance and his daughter’s death.

Leading up to the series premiere, Showcase launched a four-week multi-platform advertising campaign spotlighting both Copper and U.S. import buddy cop series Common Law, which debuted after Copper at 10 p.m. Sunday and took the #3 specialty spot.
