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 will cancel my A & E unless you bring LP back.
Ever since A&E canceled live PD I have been boycotting their network and I will not watch it again! Live PD and their other shows were my favorite shows on television. I have also stopped watching Paramount since they canceled COPS! I am so very tired of politics determining what we can and cannot watch on television! This needs to stop! This is censorship!
I think cancelling these show are truly wrong. I fully understand what happened to George Floyd was unspeakable and wrong. What that officer is unspeakable, and did get punished for what happened. But in truth the officers that were on the shows Live PD and Cops were truly doing a very hard and dangerous job. We always see what officers do to people, but what about these offenders that terrorized the officers themself. You never see that shown,all you see is how officers go after the offenders. I think it’s about time people take a look at the offenders and… Read more »
They took it off because it shows what law enforcement really have to deal with.
I watched it every week. I also said I could never deal with all the disrespect they had to deal with.
No it was the wrong call by taking this off the. Want it back on.fix it to where we can keep watching it .i am so mad they took it off.please dont cancelctye show for good.
So stupid!!! This show was about real life, not perception, statistics etc., missing children were found, dangerous criminals were captured and it showed that 99.9% of law enforcement officials have a big heart and care about the community they serve. I remember one officer who came across a man with a drug problem and instead of treating him like he was worthless, he talked to him and offered help. After he started crying saying the guy reminded him of his deceased brother who had the same kind of issues. This network is done. They have nothing else to offer, I… Read more »
Yes I think it should be pull off the air The Live PD is not what people wants to watch these days I think the only people who’s watching this program are the ones who stay at home all day or night ..I’m a white lady who’s a RN at a hospital here in Los Angeles Cailf that feel right now this is not what ppl want to watch cops on TV..
I can’t believe that this show has been cancelled!! I watch this show, every chance I get. I even record this show. A&E please bring this series back! I believe that ALL lives matter, not just black lives. I believe that every police department should be following the same policies and procedures. I feel that choke holds should be banned in all states. In my opinion, most police do an excellent job. Why would “you” make a decision to cancel a show that shows all of the great work police officers do? Your decision to cancel this show is a… Read more »
Absolutely not. Dumbest network decision yet.
I think this is absolutely ridiculous! This is a GREAT show and has many, many followers! Criminals have been found and caught due to this show! It is not right taking this wonderful show off the air because of a few bad cops! We, as viewers love this show! Grow up Sony and A&E! I will no longer watch your channels!!!
Ridiculous for A&E to cancel this series. They showed police as they are actually working, and they did not always show police in a great light. Are we living in USA or USSR! Removing a television show just because some people don’t support police is terrible. Most Americans believe police do a great job.
I believe its pandering to the black community and a slap in their face. It’s as if the directors are now saying behind closed doors, “shhhhh, we know they are criminal thugs, but we better stop showing it befor we get sued!” What’s next, going to stop having fast food chicken commercials? Where does it end.
You made a very bad decision, scared to stand tall and keep a great show on! SMDH
You really don’t want to know what i feel because if it mattered, they wouldn’t give into pressure! I realize there are racial injustices, but it’s a show featuring police. Not police brutality. Not all people or the police are bad. This is ridiculous!
I believe that A&E succumbed to political reasons to cancel Live PD and the other related shows. Did exectives not see the good the show was doing? How many lost children were found thanks the live pd nation? What about fugitives that were aprehended thanks again to the show and the live pd nation. It showed how cops do go from zerp to 100 mph with adrealine when they are put in certian situtation. But I would rather see cops being filmed live every Friday and Saturday night and show us as a nation what they are or are not… Read more »
