Background

Sidestreet succeeded The Collaborators as the CBC's main series drama. Program developers aimed to move Sidestreet away from the violence that the The Collaborators had by focusing on protagonists who were community service officers instead of ordinary detectives. They aimed to concentrate on issues such as: blockbusting, strikebreaking, rape, poverty, and the problems of the elderly in the city, instead of major crimes.

Theme song

Jazz musician Chuck Mangione composed the show's theme song. The two-minute theme appears on his 1977 hit album Feels So Good.
