After the Paramount Network canceled COPS in June, the reality show is once again filming in Spokane County, Washington. An October 1st article by the Hollywood Reporter details that crews have been filming since the beginning of September. However, this new production is allegedly for broadcasting in other countries, not in the US. Spokane has been a filming location for COPS for years, and these crews are supposed to remain until November.
What does this mean for Live PD? We don’t know, but it seems like a movement in the right direction. Dan Abrams has tweeted recently that they are working to get the show back on the air. The A+E network has taken a massive hit to ratings by removing Live PD, so there is a financial incentive to bring it back. Many have speculated that the show could return after the election, possibly in January. Another theory is that Live PD could go to a streaming platform.
For now we can only sit and wait to see if there will be new Live PD episodes. But if you are overseas you can watch a new episode of COPS.
I’m so furious over stations caving in to the cancel culture that I can barely contain myself. Bring back the Cops, Live PD, First 48 and other programs showing what is really going on in the communities…and how our brave officers lay it on the line to keep us safe.
Wait until after the election to bring these programs back? seriously?? grow a pair, A&E. try supporting the police instead of trying to sweep them under the rug in hopes we’ll forget about all of them.
Give us what we want, Live PD!
I don’t watch anything on A&E now that LIVE PD is off the air. There is fine educational value to the show. It should be mandatory for teens before they get their licenses.
I love this site, Being a former police officer I think that it is important for the public to see what police officers have to put up with every day.I really do miss Live TV on TV. I am watching a lot of Adam 12 but it is not the same as Live TV. Stay safe.
I Loved your show and thought it was very insightful. If the executives have no backbone I hope they go broke and the station dies because LivePD was the only show I watched.. Go blue, we need you to protect the citizens before we’re force to take it into our own hands unfortunately.
I have missed my #1 show, LivePD, since it’s removal from A&E. In fact, the channel is blocked on our TVs to voice our opinion of the injustice of its removal. We see both sides of coin re views, esp Law Enforcement safety if filming continued, but other filming options could have been used as taping not live; showing taped show week later after review. I’m 67 years old, but all ages in household. We have ultimate respect for Law Enforcement and think strongly that LivePD presented the right way to enforce our laws and protect our citizens. We think… Read more »
Bring back LivePD 🙏🏼
I will not watch an episode, remember, you walked away from the men and women in uniform
After 331/2 years in law enforcement, retired in 2001. Never missed an episode of Live PD. Best portrayal of day-in-day-out police work.
PLEASE RETURN!
I hope they bring live pd .it’s the best cop show they had
I haven’t watched anything on A@E since you cowardly pulled it off the air. Put it back on and I will watch faithfully.
Hey guys , any word on if Live PD will be coming back anywhere ? I really liked that show. Never watched COPS . Not really sure why , just didn’t have the same “feel” maybe you just feel more involved with catching the bad guys . It’s really too bad that these networks CAVE to minorities . I don’t mean “race”, although I imagine there are certain parts of the country where different ethnicities would be seen more than others. It’s just the way it is . MOST people in this country LOVE 99.9% of our Police. The police… Read more »
