Cops TV Show Overview
COPS
is an American documentary television series that follows
police officers, constables, and sheriff's deputies during
patrols and other police activities. It is one of the
longest-running television programs in the United States and
the second longest-running show on Fox, and along with
America's Most Wanted, the first of the longest unchanged
nightly schedule (Fox's Saturday night) currently on
American broadcast television. Created by John Langley and
Malcolm Barbour, it premiered on Saturday March 11, 1989,
and has aired 750 episodes as of March 21, 2009. It won the
American Television Award in 1993, and has earned four Emmy
nominations. On September 30, 2007, COPS began its 20th
season with a highlight episode called "20 Years Caught on
Tape".
COPS is broadcast by Fox (with repeats from earlier seasons
syndicated to other networks, including truTV (formerly
CourtTV) and G4), and follows the activities of police
officers by embedding camera crews with police units. The
show's formula follows the cinéma vérité convention, with no
narration or scripted dialog, depending entirely on the
commentary of the officers and on the actions of the people
with whom they come into contact.
The show has followed officers in 140 different cities in
the United States, and also has filmed in Hong Kong, London,
and the former Soviet Union. Each episode is approximately
22 minutes in length, and typically consists of three
segments, with each segment being one or two self-contained
police incidents.
The show is well known for its theme song, "Bad Boys",
performed by reggae group Inner Circle.
