The Live PD franchise is gone for good. According to NextTV, Sony Pictures Television has cancelled the A&E TV show’s syndicated spin-off series Live PD Police Patrol.
The weekly series focused on the daily work of police forces throughout the United States. “Every episode highlights the daily life-and-death situations faced by Sheriff’s Departments, Highway Patrols and local Police Departments in a diverse range of jurisdictions from Connecticut to Arizona, ” via the show’s website.
Sony Pictures Television cancelled Live PD Police Patrol after A&E ended Live PD in the wake of international protests against police brutality. Live PD Police Patrol is being pulled off the air this week.
What do you think? Do you watch Live PD Police Patrol? Do you think Sony made the right call?
What a disappointment A@E dropped the ball on this one. Seriously, really, judging all policemen as a whole instead individuals according to their actions. I can’t believe we have come to this destroying property, looting in the name of a cause that doesn’t bring any honor or sympathy towards their original purpose. So by judgement of all police loading them in the same category. Isn’t that what their movement is asking, every one to be treated fairly. What a odd way of showing it, cancelling a show that shows police in a positive light. Sony and A@E you are wrong.… Read more »
I don’t care if another tv broadcast buys them out or dan gets replaced just don’t cancel the show
It’s a dang shame it’s over. I really hope some other network gets them back on the air. I would watch it for hours on end and loved it. I thought it showed the great side of police officers. So sad, that all this PC garbage is taking over the good police that are out there. So much about politics now!
I would watch a 24hr LivePD channel if it were available!!!
Yes, I agree. They Do Not want the GOOD SIDE of the police exposed I’m sure. It’s Not Right.
Total knee-jerk reaction to cancel the LivePD franchise. This show viewed positive community policing, helped over 50+ missing children get located all over the US. Showing police interacting positively with the public is a bad thing? Hopefully cooler heads will prevail, and this great program will get back on TV @ #1 on Fri/Sat where it belongs.
I loved the show! I’m really upset and cannot believe this could even happen!
There was never anything on there that was a call for alarm, you just got the chance to experience the life of a police officer.
I always wanted to get into PI work but that came to me to late in life.
I hope you rethink your decision to cancel this great show and bring it back on TV.PLEASE PLEASE
I THINK DAN ABRAMS WAS GREAT,ALONG WITH STICKS LARSON AND JIM MORRIS!
PLEASE DON’T CANCEL THIS GREAT SHOW!
Thank you for listening

What a shame they cancelled Live PD.it showed good officers doing their jobs. I know longer watch A & E
The one show that showed that not all cops are bad. Being removed from the air because of four bad cops yeah that seems like a great idea.
A&E is dead
Yes. and for years there will be litigation over alot of the things done to people by police on that show. I cant believe they think treating people the way we have watched them over the years on this an similar shows and gode them into doing something to be in trouble for after being stopped for nothing. No person should be made to exit thier car unless they have warrants or it’s a felony stop. Every cop from now on every minute ofduty will have tobe on video it’s what they will have to do now otherwise they be… Read more »
Canceling Live PD was the weakest move I have seen in years. This show humanized police and helped us understand how tough there job really is. Canceling the show only hurts the already problematic relationship between citizens and police over a few bad eggs. A&E SUCKS!
How does it hurt the relationship? Explain that. It’s a tv show.
I think the decision by A&E as well as Sony are both a**enine as well as weak a**. Fedup and tired of the weak a** people out their. The individual that got killed by cop which caused all of this mess shouldn’t even been able to go what he did. If it wasn’t for those that left the officer on the payroll none of this would be happening. What i’m getting at is if you look at all of the citations and reprimands that the officer had he shouldn’t have been wearing a badge any more. Let that sink in… Read more »
Its much bigger than just this one cop. This type ifcbehavior has been going on for decades. The entire code of silence has to change. Every good cop that stays silent becomes a bad cop.
Huge mistake. This show did so much good
bad move by A&E and Paramount to cancel live pd and cops because of a few police officers
I love this show. I think it’s a shame for it to be taking off just because some people have messed up. We all should not be punished because of it. I sure hope that you reconsider putting the show back on.
Huge mistake. This show did so much good from finding missing kids to getting dangerous criminals off the streets. My uncle was an officer for 32 years and never took a life or was investigated. A dear friend a sheriff’s deputy was killed at 24 at a domestic disturbance. A few “overzealous” to put it mildly ruined this wonderful show 4 everyone. How about the good they do from lost animals to lost people? Punish the ones who dishonor the badge, not the people who so enjoyed this show.
I have to agree I don’t believe that A&e should of canceled live pd or any other cops show! I am think am not watching any show on a&e anymore! Not all cops are back ! Live pd did show the good side of what police officers do!
