COPS

Debuting just a year before Fox’s nearly infinite reality show of the same name, the animated version of COPS was set in the near future (2020 when the show debuted in 1988) and followed a special unit of police officers who protected Empire City using everything from robot dogs to a fleet of vehicles that wouldn’t be out of place in the Blade Runner universe. I remember being particularly obsessed with a police helicopter featuring an incredibly inconvenient design with dual cockpits that were completely separated from each other.
