Television is really reaching this time around!
With a slew of paranormal shows on TV already, A&E is looking to compete with the SciFi Channel’s Ghost Hunters with its own brand of soul searching.
The premise of Paranormal Cops is just as dumb as its title.
In a reality TV format, a group of Chicago police officers chase ghosts and…arrest them?
Don’t worry, this is an off-duty hobby.
The “ghost busters” – which were in business prior to the show’s creation – include the 4 cops, two tech assistants, and a “medium.”
Senior VP of nonfiction and alternative programming at A&E, Robert Sharenow, said, “Paranormal Cops is the perfect marriage of A&E├óΓé¼Γäós successful crime and justice genre with our blossoming paranormal programming that documents real-life accounts of bona fide paranormal investigators.”
That’s just what we need!
