I remember back in the mid 2000's COPS would show various episodes on the WB/CW Channel, Court TV and FX, I also miss seeing COPS on the G4 Channel later on in the late 2000's.
shareI miss the days of the show on Spike/Paramount Network and WGN America/Newsnation.
Lately, Reelz airs the COPS Reloaded spinoff. It's shortened segments from the later years on FOX.
I was not a huge fan of COPS Reloaded, I didn't get why they only focused on the later FOX years, shame they no longer come on Spike and WGN anymore, is it because of the George Floyd incident.
I wish they would play episodes from the first 15 seasons.
On Reelz now
shareCOPS or COPS Reloaded?
shareReloaded. I don't think we'll see new episodes ever again. Too many states are outlawing or working towards legislation to outlaw these types of shows.
shareI was really saddened that they cancelled the show COPS all because of the George Floyd incident, not all officers are similar to Derek Chauvin, I've been a big fan of the show COPS since 1992 when I was 12 years old.
shareThat's not the only reason why. Most of it has to do with the producer of live pd getting charged for not sharing video of a police shooting. It spooked other shows like this. There is also a lot of people acknowledging that people's lives have gotten ruined from these shows, regardless of the legal outcome. And as I mentioned, they are starting to outlaw filming these shows, so tough for them looking forward.
