I've never enjoyed and I never will enjoy anything cop related in terms of reality TV. It just reminds us of how systemic so many of our issues are racism, poverty and so on. We should not treat it as entertainment because it should not be entertaining. My favorite reality show is probably Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,. followed by any other real housewives franchise but especially the ones with Captain Sandy.
