Season Nine
The ninth (11th in some territories) season returned to air in 2008.
The new season sees Rex moved from Vienna to Rome and teamed up with an Italian detective. Kaspar Capparoni stars as Chief Inspector Lorenzo Fabbri, a homicide detective from Rome. He visits the Mordkommission office in Vienna, to discuss a cross-border murder case. He meets Kunz (the only character remaining from the previous series) and Rex, now officially retired but still allowed the run of the office, albeit with some reluctance from police administration. Rex and Fabbri develop a bond and he decides to unofficially take Rex with him when he returns to Rome.
Predictably, Rex assists Fabbri in solving several murders, and after some good publicity in the press, his Superintendent allows Rex to officially join the team.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“The hour of the waning of love has beset us,
And weary and worn are our sad souls now;
Let us part, ere the season of passion forget us,
With a kiss and a tear on thy drooping brow.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“At this season I seldom had a visitor. When the snow lay deepest no wanderer ventured near my house for a week or fortnight at a time, but there I lived as snug as a meadow mouse.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
