LivePD

Recommended Posts

Emmy-winning documentary series like "Intervention" and "Born This Way" illustrate A&E Network's commitment to provocative, culturally relevant programming. Fitting perfectly alongside such projects is "Live PD," which shines a light on the hot-button issue of policing in America by presenting a transparent look at law enforcement on duty. Incorporating dash cams along with fixed rig and handheld cameras, the series captures the work of a mix of urban and rural police forces on a typical Friday night. As host, veteran journalist Dan Abrams gives insight into what viewers are seeing in real time.

 

It comes on friday and saturday 9:00-12:00... anyone watch?

I know a few people who love it. I watched a little bit but didn't get into it. It's basically a live version of COPS. Maybe the live part is what I didn't care for. They try to cut out boring stuff but you can't do that as well as an edited show does. And sometimes they jump from one thing to something else and never go back so you sit there going "wtf happened with that other incident?". You get 10 stories but only see 4 of them conclude. Kind of annoying.

Is it me or does OPL seem way more tame than Live PD? I have been getting really bored with OPL. Lots of long, boring dialogue for mundane calls (loitering calls, noise disturbances, etc). It seems like the OPL crew rarely has high risk stops (such as felony stops), whereas LivePD has tons of action and drama. I never thought I would get bored with this show, but here I am.
