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?
I love Live PD. It’s one of my favorite TV shows. I think it’s wrong for it to be cancelled and I’m sure a lot of people are upset that it has been cancelled. We want our LIVE PD BACK on the air
This is exactly what we need to see transparency with police departments. Pulling it is the dumbest thing they could do. Everyone could learn from these shows. They should come back and bigger. They were #1 rated show for a reason. Wake up !!!!
It is MIND BLOWING that A&E, ID, Paramount tv have canceled all shows involving police officers?!?! What in the hell are they all agreeing to do this for? I will never believe that all police officers/departments are corrupt. I absolutely agree that there needs to be some serious change. I also think that by doing this, you’re saying that they’re right, all cops are bad, and all departments are corrupt. You try and hide something, it generally means just that. Why are these tb channels doing that? It should be completely opposite. Show all the police shows you can, if… Read more »
LIVE PD was THE NUMBER 1 show on cable TV. LIVE PD NATION ought to go out and protest this ignorant decision to cancel it!!! You want transparency with the Police?? There it was. Bad decision by A&E& Sony. I say boycott them both. They OVER REACTED regarding the riots and protests. I want my favorite LIVE PD show back on Fri. And Sat. Hopefully, a smarter cable network will pick it up just like they did with Dog the Bounty Hunter.
That’s the dumbest thing that I hear today
Everyday its something. It keeps getting worse
Totally ridiculous to cancel a show because we’re finding some people I used to watch that show with my grandkids so they could see that police are good people and you can go to them when you need help
No they did not make the right call. This was a show about police officers and the idiots they deal with on a daily basis. There was as common thread, get stopped, don’t follow instructions, no license, no ID, no insurance and then they run!!! These officers put their lives on the line for EVERYONE on a daily basis and they are reviled, spit upon, and hated for doing their jobs. Yes, there will always be a few bad apples in every barrel but that’s is life, we have to take the good with the bad. Yes, things need to… Read more »
The show is a good show and depicts real situations which are not always pretty as is life. Canceling is akin to cutting off ones nose to spite the face. Channel viewership will be adversely affected.
No they did not make the right call. Since Canceled Culture canceled them, I canceled all my DVR recordings for A&E programs.
This is sad. My child wants to be a cop or a fire fighter when he grows up and this was one if his favorite shows. He looked up to those cops who put their life on the line and are catching the bad guys. The left has shut down a perfectly good show for no reason. The hypocrisy is stunning when they speak of freedom of speech and heap praise on first responders but then subsequently shut down down a show because now the police are bad. At least their hypocrisy is consistent. A&E this was a bad move… Read more »
I don’t understand why it was canceled. It is in real time which shows everything good and bad. It shows mostly how many black people are breaking the law. Its not the cops fault that its mostly black people.
I am so disappointed that Live PD is canceled. It gives us viewers what the Officers goes through to perform their jobs. Please bring the show back where it belongs.
The show was the most watched series on television. It showed what police officers have to deal with every day They cowered to the left’s agenda. Now they want to defund the police? PLEASE! I believe this will shut down A&E. One can only hope. I won’t be watching that network. Ever. This might even be what I needed to cut the cord on Direct TV. This show was one of the reasons I still pay to watch TV. Maybe a different network will grow a pair and bring the show back.
It is very disappointing to think that bringing a community together to watch live action of what is going on in the world is the wrong thing to be doing. The people, growing in number every day, were invested in not only learning but helping by spreading the word of those that needed to be found, children and criminals. We were a strong extra pair of eyes at times in real time. How could you decide that is wrong or bad? Shame on you.
NO they made the WRONG CALL! Instead of using this show as a platform to bridge the divide and show GOOD COPS making GOOD DECISIONS they had a knee jerk reaction and bowed to the whole mob mentality. I have never been so disappointed in a company. They could redeem themselves by bringing it back but you know damn well they won’t.
