“‘Cops’ is not on the Paramount Network and we don’t have any current or future plans for it to return,” a Paramount Network spokesperson said in a statement.
The original decision to hold “Cops” was spurred by nationwide protests against police brutality following the“Cops” originally launched on Fox in 1989 and has come under fire in recent years for its depicts law enforcement and questionable behind the scenes practices.which chronicled hundreds of episodes of the show.
Fox aired 25 seasons of “Cops,” pairing it with “America’s Most Wanted” on Saturday nights for 14 years. “Most Wanted” moved to Lifetime in 2011 and was eventually canceled. “Cops,” meanwhile, got a new lease on life in 2013 when Spike TV ordered new episodes and paired them with repeats. Spike was rebranded as Paramount Network in 2018.
At the same time as Paramount Network pulled “Cops” from its plans, A&E removed a similar show in “Live PD” from its schedule “out of respect for the families of George Floyd and others who have lost their lives.” “Live PD” is currently the number one series on cable on Friday and Saturday nights, and follows cops and sheriffs — live, in real time, as they patrol various cities and counties across the country.
That sucks but it's alright for us to watch all MLK stuff. For real
More Democrats will vote Republican due to the idiotic agenda.
Disgusting and pathetic.
BS
this movement is no joke & good for all of them & that's means no more violent cops show on television & what about those 48 hours shows that miss handles their victims as well to make a collar & get them all off the AIR
How did they know?
Good!
Ridiculous!
Ground truth shows a popular tv show being canceled by thought police who don't care that armed insurrectionists have separated off part of Seattle.
Cause nobody’s going to watch a show where cops arrest themselves?
Thank goodness we still have the View.
Great news !
I thought when they took the flag from South Carolinas capital everything was going to miraculously get better. Now its COPS! ( may want to try getting a job and attending Church)
How stupid. That show was a great show to help talk to my children about behavior, crime, and consequences.
Because everyone is going to quit committing crimes. People of all colors. Okay, We'll go with that.
Wow that show has been on for years. I guess they can’t film for tv all their brutality as long as it’s live and in our faces nightly.
Wasn’t Cops all reruns from years ago?
Too bad, gave great life lesson examples of what irresponsible lives look like and prime examples to ones kids of what you don't want to grow up to be....
BLKLiberation84 Goodbye fractured fairy tales.
No great loss.
👍
What about Chicago PD and Chicago Fire and hell, Chicago Med
Way to put people out of work. Apparently no one or thing has balls anymore.
Cops wasn't bad though they ACTUALLY did the right thing we only care about bad cops and racist and crooked cops
I didn't know that show was still on. Lol
Changeling2525 Why? It was good to see all the violence on TV ...
Really? Wow
Need to rewrite Title - Cop out - ( defunded )
terrible show. glorified violence
Its a joke
I never liked that fake show
Good.
Good
I almost wounded if the cop that was on his neck was trying to get back at him. After all George did Fire him. Maybe not so much because he was Black. I am not trying to change what happened
WHA?! We BINGE COPS on PlutoTV ! We've been dying (No pun intended) for new episodes!
Such BS!
It’s a bittersweet feeling, but watching the worst day in someone’s life for the sake of entertainment is a shitty thing to do. Plus, people have died while filming Cops
So if people want ro watch it the radical mob gets to decide if it gets pulled? K....i see how it is. After the election will we get our shows back
That sucks
What
What a joke keep bowing down sheep
Bad cops, bad cops. What you gonna do when they come for you
Absolutely ridiculous!
Had to cancel because when the music came on yoy couldn't tell who the bad boys were anymore.
Time to show the real interaction between people and police.
Ok wait... that's too far :)
What really pissed me off about that show was how many people were getting their lives ruined for drugs, 90% of which r FAR safer than the DRUG alcohol, and I'm not just talking about weed
Finally
GOOD!
I stopped watching Cops after they introduced tasers and Live PD after a police officer seriously asked a man why he was walking down a street. He was mad and son was I.
💪🏾🌎❤️ BlackLivesMattters
Like it or not Americans: You live in a country in which a known criminal becomes a hero and gets a million dollar funeral while people who actually cared for society and righteousness are buried like garbage without anyone acknowledging the good deeds they did.
How quickly ppl fold! This is ridiculous! Stop making knee jerk decision because of the ongoing protests/riots/threats! Majority of Americans do not want the police defunded. Many in the black communities don’t want the police defunded. Yet here we go...
Foolish
This is bullshit.
I am absolutely disgusted that so many organizations and people are actually buying into the vilifying cops narrative. BackTheBlue BlueLivesMatter BackTheBadge
The world is a really stupid place these days
Cowards
👍🏾
🤦♂️
Greatest show of all time. Chronicles of so many criminal’s fledgling careers.
Simps
US lost their minds
What ya gonna do?
Really unbelievable
Was the cop that killed George Floyd one of the cast members of the show? If not it doesn't make much sense to cancel the show.
Who else didn't know it was still on? meanwhile if you're interested in earning and investing in binary options (bitcoin), kindly send me a DM.
Replaced with new show “Thugs.” Theme song: “Whatcha gonna do when thugs come to rob and kill you?”
Does anybody still watch cops? Live PD is pretty good huh
AWWWW HELL NO WTF MAN?!!!!
So dumb. At least cameras were rolling.
Live PD should go too
Good!
Thought it was cancelled 15 years ago honestly
That show has been on for like 150 seasons!
Meh, whatcha gonna do?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That is so wrong!!
Ridiculous.
Good show was always racist.
TIL that “Cops” is still on TV.
That's the only show that shows what police work is really like. So are the big 3 networks going to cancel their unrealistic cop dramas that always end with drawn guns?
Decriminalize marijuana federally & end cannabis prohibition ASAP. The reason why they’re cancelling these type shows is because it shows police using marijuana being illegal as a tool to get minorities & working class Americans into the prison system where it destroys their life
Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
PC Cop Out Back the Blue
Lmao!!! Didn’t watch that show anyway!
hope all the other cop shows are cancelled soon as well
More pandering to the phony BLM
Fucking finally
Absurd
Wait COPS was still on the air? DO we still get to watch Live PD? That's mostly just dumb people doing dumb misdemeanors.
35 year run over. shameful. Bow down to the mob. shameful
Good! U might want to LISTEN to Headlong: Running from 'COPS' the podcast before you whine about your entertainment. Lives have been ruined for your short term titillation.
I loved that show
