The 100th episode of On Patrol: Live is set to premiere on REELZ on July 29, with new appearances from more police departments.

To mark the milestone event, this weekend’s episodes will see the Hazen Police Department in Arkansas and the Brookford Police Department in North Carolina appear alongside the usual roster.

Since July 2022, On Patrol: Live has been documenting in real time the work of more than 250 police officers from 14 different departments and sheriff’s offices across the U.S. Host and executive producer Dan Abrams, alongside Sgt. Sean “Sticks” Larkin (ret.) and Deputy Sheriff Curtis Wilson, provides minute-by-minute live analysis and context.

The live show is complemented by segments dedicated to tracking down America’s most-wanted criminals, as well as finding missing people through the help of weekly segments that air in conjunction with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and the Black and Missing Foundation (BAMFI).

On Patrol: Live is produced by Half Moon Pictures. Executive producers are Abrams, Dan Cesareo, John Zito, Lucilla D’Agostino, Paul Gordon and Joe Venafro.

“One year ago, On Patrol: Live began documenting the work of law enforcement officers in real time in communities across the country,” said Stan E. Hubbard, CEO of REELZ. “Viewers engaged with the series in a big way, and we’re thrilled to celebrate the 100th episode of a show where anything can and does happen. REELZ’s long-standing commitment to public service was a driving force behind bringing On Patrol: Live to our viewers. In fact, the show’s Missing and Wanted segments have brought crucial and timely media attention and social media buzz and calls to action that have helped in the recovery of 22 missing people to date, most of them children, as well as the apprehension of several dangerous suspects. This is the power of live television.”

Abrams added, “Our dedicated viewers are the heartbeat of this show. It’s an honor to spend every Friday and Saturday night with #OPNation, and the last 100 episodes have flown by. We’re gratified that OPL has had such an impact not only on the audience but also in communities across America where the show has had a hand in reuniting families and bringing fugitives to justice, and we look forward to continuing that mission.”
