The main characters are emergency vehicles named Paulie Police Car and Fiona Fire Engine. In each episode, they go on a new adventure and solve a problem!

This exciting series was first created in Sweden in 2009. Today, it's shown in more than 70 countries around the world. The first season was written by Swedish writers. For the second season, most of the stories were written by American writers.

How the Show is Made

Making an animated TV show like Heroes of the City takes a lot of teamwork! It involves many talented people. They work on everything from writing the stories to drawing the characters and adding sounds.

The Creative Team

The show was created by a company called Ruta Ett DVD AB. Pelle Ferner was the director for both seasons. He helped make sure everything looked and sounded just right. Mattias Wennerfalk was the art director. He designed how the characters and places would look.

Writing the Stories

The stories for Heroes of the City were written by a team of writers. Elin Ferner wrote many of the early episodes. Later, American writers like Jymn Magon and Eric Shaw also joined the team. They created exciting new missions for Paulie and Fiona.

Bringing Characters to Life

The animation for the show was done by Reliance Media Works Ltd. Animators are artists who make the characters move on screen. They use computers to create all the action you see. Voice actors also play a big part. They give voices to Paulie, Fiona, and all the other characters. This makes them feel real!
