“This show has become a part of my DNA, and I certainly want a partner who feels the same way,” Abrams, 56, told The Post. “Reelz is really excited about this series; they’re committing a lot of their entire network to the series and are going to put their marketing behind it.”
“Live PD,” which premiered in 2016, was axed by A&E and producer Big Fish Entertainment in June 2020 in the wake of George Floyd’s death, which spurred national outrage over police brutality. At the time, it was A&E’s top-rated series and had just received an additional 160-episode order.
The long-running series “Cops,” which aired on Fox for 25 seasons before moving to Spike TV — which then morphed into Paramount Network — was canceled the day before “Live PD.” It returned to the streaming service Fox Nation for its 33rd season in October 2021.
