786 Episodes as of 9/12/09

Most famous intro warning:
Due to the graphic nature of this program, viewer discretion is advised.
Cops is filmed with the cooperation of the men and women of law enforcement. 
All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Officially the 750th episode was 3/21/09 and I had 771 listed. The 700th episode was 11/10/07, but no explanation of their count is ever offered. I had 718 at the time. Some best ofs are counted as regular episodes, but 12 are not and maybe they don't count some of the 2 hour specials - but I do. Also some episodes have become quietly banned and removed from syndication.

COPS on Fox has been my favorite TV series since 1989. It airs at 8pm on Saturday nights and has ever since it started, later adding a second episode, sometimes a new one, usually a rerun, right after. Then America's most Wanted follows. In the mid 1990s I tried to find out how many episodes there were or an episode guide. No one ever had an answer from the official site to TV Guide to wherever, and still don't. So I started my own Episode Guide for it since no one else ever would and in 2001 started posting it online and now all the pieces are in place, but some production numbers may not be exact because there are episodes that are banned or have segments that have been replaced. I have been taping Cops since the first season and have every single one recorded. I have written summaries for every episode, but I haven't posted them all yet, so if it's not listed I should be able to find it.

21 seasons and still no loyalty from Fox. Last night they let the Yankees game go 95 minutes late and didn't air the first episode of Cops and they could've aired the second one by not playing the intro and going right into it, but no they added all the extra commercials and made it in progress on all 3 Fox stations. It doesn't look like a new Cops until 5/16 as NASCAR is on the schedule again.
