Pasco County Continues on Live Pd
If you loved watching Cops growing up, then you'll definitely be hooked on the A&E reality series Live PD. The show follows officers across the country — from both urban and rural communities — as they patrol. Live PD also features an in-studio host, Dan Abrams, as well as two analysts: Sean Larkin, a full-time police officer, and Tom Morris, a crime reporter. These pros give real-time insight to viewers on what they are seeing.

What also makes Live PD different from other reality police procedurals is that the majority of the footage comes from a "mix of dash cams, fixed rig and handheld cameras." So, who are these officers we are seeing in action? Check out some Live PD cast favorites below:
1. Sean "Sticks" Larkin

Along with being a full-time police officer in Tulsa, OK, Sgt. Larkin is also analyst on the A&E series. He is also the host of PD Cam, which gives fans an officers' POV thanks to body cameras, dash cams, helicopter footage, security/surveillance cameras and citizen journalists' personal mobile phones.
"I get a kick out of these idiots who try to burglarize businesses or homes. They come in through a roof, and they fall through [it]," he said of the footage. "All of a sudden you just see this body drop through the ceiling and land on one of the counters or something and it's like, That's what they get. I crack up every time."

3. Sgt. John Curley

Sgt. Curley has worked at the Warwick Police Department in Rhode Island for eight years, and recently he dished on the most intense situation he experienced on Live PD.
"I would have to say the DUI car chase. Car chases in general are very intense and then it ended in a foot pursuit, which is also intense," he told A&E. "With car chases, sometimes you can't control whether or not it's going to be terminated or end in a crash. But when there's a foot chase, that's between you and somebody else; may the best person win."
Fun fact: Sgt. Curley was a semi-pro hockey player and was on a farm team for the San Jose Sharks before joining the force.

Along with being a police officer, Addy is in the military, where she serves as a drill sergeant in the Army. She came off active duty in 2016.
"It was an easy transition from the military into law enforcement. They have similarities on the structure and the environment and some things you're built to do," she said. "I come from a family of law-enforcement and military folks — I have a lot of friends, a lot of cousins and uncles and aunts with the NYPD — so it was an easier transition for me to go into it. I was more familiar with the environment as well."
