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?
Please bring back Live PD . I LOVED watching that show. Its about real life.
I dont understand why the show was canceled- big mistake for canceling the show.
This is the new corporate thinking. Dont take the time to assess change through your customer base. Just react, without thinking, to the demands of the loudest group out there. And since those groups get all the media hype, you can’t let that con into believing that is sentiment of your customers and the majority of Americans.
Twenty year veteran here?also retired from the dapartment of correction! It is a dam shame that you canceled live PD ! The public has a right to see just how hard our Policies Offices Work Daily to protect our Society!!
Live PD was the best program on tv. It showed a good mix of how hard police work is. I guess some people didnt want the viewers to see that all police officers are not bad. RIP Live PD.
Yes it was the best. Some criminals dont want police to be thought of as good people.
Its so irrational to cancel a program, that has no negative impact on anything but gettting this show cancelled. Who are they protecting and why and what is cancelling the show supposed to accomplish? Same with “Cops” makes no sense. Quit making everything about proving to not be racist.
I use to look forward to friday and saturday nights. It was the 2 times a week I know my husband and I would be together watching and talking about our favorite show. And our teenage kids would even come in periodically to discuss certain parts that they would sit down to watch. We had several enlightening and sometimes heated,conversations about our personal thoughts,and views and also the legal side of things as well. Now fridays and saturdays come and go and we just flip through channels or find something else to do. And what sucks is we cant even… Read more »
Live PD provided us true insight into law enforcement from many different perspectives and angles. It showed us situations with police generosity, feelings of empathy, anxious situations, widespread drug problems, tons of drivers without licenses, domestic violence, high speed chases and the occasional use of force. I am sure there was appropriate editing where needed (to protect identity, etc.), but the show presented a very balanced perspective and genuine and honest commentary. There were some episodes where my wife and I had openly questioned the overt use of force or a sudden use of a taser without a vocal warning,… Read more »
In all honesty A&E got rid of the only good shows on the channel. They’ve reduced their viewership by millions and at least by my family
Ridiculous. What about live PD nation? These people were helping missing children! This show needs to be on, it only shows the truth.
I Think it is rediculas it’s cancelled. I am a retired Professional Fire fighter. 40 year’s on the street. I have always said you think you have seen it All until the Next call. All reality shows the real world. While everyone is home relaxing. Believe me There are Bad Police, Firefighters, EMS Doctors, Nurse’s Teachers Clergy, Priests and Politicians. Do we Shut down Churches, Schools Hospitals Washington DC. Hollywood. I don’t think so. So Why are you listening to the Minority Protester’s Who have The real Truth Told. Old saying goes on the Street. Nothing good happens After 9:00… Read more »
