Is there a cop network, and if not, isn’t it just on the horizon.

I thought about this when noting that every network has at least 2 cop/law shows on every night. Add to that all the success of Cops, and Most Dangerous Chases, and live chase coverages, and so on.

One could easily fill up a week’s worth of time with all these things.

Should I nevermind because the FOX channel has that market covered?

A&E pretty much is… Law & Order, Poirot, Columbo, Crossing Jordan (kinda)
