Live PD is a television show broadcast on the A&E network. The non-fiction program follows police officers in the course of their duties but is unique in the fact that the footage is being broadcast in real time nationally. The series premiered on October 28, 2016 with an initial order from A&E of eight two-hour episodes. On February 1, 2017, A&E announced that they had extended season one to 21 episodes. The show has subsequently continued to air episodes past the 21 episodes ordered. The episode scheduled to air on May 13, 2017, was cancelled after a transformer blew at the Midtown, NY studios, which resulted in a power failure. A&E aired a rerun with a crawl message regarding a power failure. The show then took a two week hiatus before resuming live episodes on June 2, 2017. Season 1 concluded on Aug. 19, 2017, with Abrams announcing Season 2 would premiere in early October 2017.
