Live PD was a reality TV show that followed cops on patrol. It was canceled by A&E in June 2020 following reports that the show had filmed an incident between police and a 40-year-old black man that ultimately resulted in that mans death. Javier Ambler was stopped by police in Texas for failing to dim his headlights in March 2019 and was later held down and tasered four times while a crew from "Live P.D." filmed. Ambler died in custody, and footage of the encounter never aired and was destroyed. The cancellation of the show was initially placed on hiatus following the protests over the death of George Floyd.

In June 2022, the show was revived and rebranded as "On Patrol: Live" and airing on Reelz. Host and executive producer Dan Abrams returned for this new iteration, alongside Sgt. Sean “Sticks” Larkin, a retired Tulsa Police Department lieutenant with nearly 25 years of service, and Deputy Sheriff Curtis Wilson.

It is unclear whether the show will ever return to A&E. Abrams has said that he hopes it will, but declined to comment further.
