Cops was known for following police during patrols, highlighting dramatic portions of arrests. It began in 1989 and ran until 2020, serving as a sort of prototype reality show years before the genre surged in popularity. It was cancelled after the death of Minnesota man
George Floyd, who died during an arrest in May 25, 2020. Floyd’s passing, which has since been adjudicated as a second-degree unintentional murder at the hands of fired Minneapolis police officer
Derek Chauvin, sparked an ongoing national debate over law enforcement treats people of color, especially Black men like Floyd.
