I watch LivePD all the time, really. It's better than having the TV on the news, anyway.
What boggles my mind about it (and remember, I was an SP) is the amount of people that get pulled over without having their license on them. I only ever pulled over one guy on base who was driving on a suspended license (and it was the 17 year old son of an Army MSG on MacDill).
I discovered the show a year ago when I had to sit at home for 3 months after shoulder surgery.
