For the minor league ice hockey team, see [Iowa Heartlanders](/source/Iowa_Heartlanders). ***Heartlanders*** is an [English language](/source/English_language) [television](/source/Television) [drama](/source/Drama) telecast on [MediaCorp TV Channel 5](/source/Channel_5_(Singaporean_TV_channel)). Based on the encounters of two [officers](/source/Police_officer) of the [Singapore Police Force](/source/Singapore_Police_Force). The first season aired on 5 July 2002, and has since another three seasons have aired, with the last season being shown from 12 July 2005. There are no indications as yet if a fifth season will be produced. While the show evoked comparisons with *[Triple Nine](/source/Triple_Nine_(TV_series))*, telecast from 1995 to 1999, *Heartlanders* was distinctively the first Singaporean English television series to be based primarily on uniformed [patrol officers](/source/Patrol). The show was set in the [Singaporean](/source/Singapore) [heartlands](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/heartland) and in a typical [public housing](/source/Public_housing_in_Singapore) setting, hence the name *Heartlanders*. The show starred [Vincent Ng](/source/Vincent_Ng) and [Aaron Aziz](/source/Aaron_Aziz) as the main casts. It was Ng's first foray into an English drama, and helped to expose the latter to the non-Malay television audience. Other cast members included [Tracy Tan](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tracy_Tan&action=edit&redlink=1) and Natalie Faye in Season 1, [Corrine Adrienne](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corrine_Adrienne&action=edit&redlink=1) in Seasons 1 and 2, [Steph Song](/source/Steph_Song) in Season 2, [Julian Hee](/source/Julian_Hee) in Season 3 and 4, [Priscelia Chan](/source/Priscelia_Chan) in Season 3 and 4, [Desiree Siahaan](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Desiree_Siahaan&action=edit&redlink=1) in Season 3 and 4, and [Shaun Chen](/source/Shaun_Chen) in Season 4. News of Aaron's planned departure to break into the Malaysian entertainment scene in late 2003 threatened the show's main lineup, and producers banked on the suspense by having Aaron's character almost killed off early in Season 3. This show also featured future Star Search contestants [Andie Chen](/source/Andie_Chen) who would later become the [Star Search 2007](/source/Star_Search_2007) champion and [Romeo Tan](/source/Romeo_Tan) who is the finalist of the [Star Search 2010](/source/Star_Search_2010). ## Cast - [Vincent Ng](/source/Vincent_Ng) – Cpl Ricky Soh - [Aaron Aziz](/source/Aaron_Aziz) – Cpl Jamal Bin Salleh[1] - [Tracy Tan](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tracy_Tan&action=edit&redlink=1) – Sharon Choo - [Corrine Adrienne](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Corrine_Adrienne&action=edit&redlink=1) – ASP Angela Soh - [Steph Song](/source/Steph_Song) – Rachel Kang - [Julian Hee](/source/Julian_Hee) – Cpl Darren Ho - [Priscelia Chan](/source/Priscelia_Chan) – Lisa Gan - [Desiree Ann Siahaan](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Desiree_Ann_Siahaan&action=edit&redlink=1) – Cassie - Natalie Faye – Choon Yuen - [Shaun Chen](/source/Shaun_Chen) – James ## Episodes ### Season 1 (Fridays, 8:30 p.m.) - 1.
