COPS follows police officers, constables, and sheriff's deputies during patrols and various police activities by embedding camera crews with their units. The show's formula adheres to a classic cinéma vérité ethos. With no narration or scripted dialog, it depends entirely on the commentary of the officers and on the actions of the people with whom they come into contact.
A feisty cyclist gives a team of officers a bloody fight. A scared caregiver attempts to evict an unwanted helper from her patient's house. Mysterious tinfoil lands an unlicensed driver in hot water.
