Gnomes: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Senior Sergeant Arnold Kipps is having a totally sub-par day in suburbia. His ex-partner and ex-flame Ellie McKay has just returned to Nompton to shut down his police station, right when an ancient, evil force is awakened by the bloodthirsty Gnome Queen. Unleashing a nightmare horde of killer ceramic gnomes upon the unsuspecting town, Nompton is instantly plunged into pure, unadulterated chaos.

Armed with an array of unconventional weapons, and sheer desperation, Arnold and Ellie must reunite a ragtag team of misfit cops, rebellious teens, and an overly ambitious mayor to stop the Gnome Queen's rampage before the entire town gets dug up from the roots. Because these lawn ornaments aren't just angry—they're out to smash faces and take names.
