Except for the times they had “fluff” segments of the cops just harassing and making fun of a trans person, arresting a gay person who was the victim of domestic abuse at the hands of his parents, and a few other super shitty police things they show as being “good.”

On a lighter note: my favorite episode of The X-Files is the one that parodies COPS. IIRC, Duchovney wrote and directed that one and it’s hilarious.

Reno 911! is best COPS.

Jesus. Were those snakes ok?? I mean, hanging out in a closet all wrapped up about to have 60 babies? Is that… a healthy habitat for that kind of situation?

That was gold

Man this same encounter today would have ended in bloodshed for sure.

“These snakes are more important to me than any human.”

Keeps them in a wooden hutch with nothing but newspaper
