I didn't think they could up the excitement level in this program!
I was wrong!
They used to follow eight departments during each episode. Now,
they're following 12 departments. Which obviously gives them more
incidents to look in on. And for this first 12 department episode there
were five or six chases, some very long, all successfully brought to
a close. Which just added to already interesting and exciting program.
By having so many departments involved and staying with each incident.
We get to see the variety of enforcement methods and tactics that exists
out there from state to state, county to county, and city to city.
It's an exciting learning experience that I believe will ultimately help many
departments across this country. And not just by showing that law enforcement
can be adept and be very successful in dealing with crime. It shows that the
police don't have to be feared. And that they are just doing the job doing the job,
they don't want to hurt anyone. And if a person behaves they will be treated
respectfully from the start.
This first 12 department episode bodes well for future shows. It will be good.
