and airs weekdays from 8-9 PM ET/PT and includes premieres of four new series:

edge-of-your-seat programming pushes the envelope, satisfying armchair

Monday
Beach Patrol: San Diego(SM)
San Diego's lifeguards are an elite group: licensed not only to perform
life saving water rescues, they are also sworn officers of the peace. Working
closely with the San Diego Police Department, their mission is to keep the
beach safe -- whether that means investigating cases of murder or missing
persons, busting unruly underage drinkers, breaking-up fights, searching for
underwater evidence, recovering bodies or performing dangerous cliff
rescues -- it is their job to uphold the law along this pristine stretch of
California sand and sea.
Tuesday
Cops
The investigative reality show that shows the tense, dangerous and
sometimes bizarre situations that make up the shift of an on-duty officer is
one of the most addictive in the history of television. Riding along with law
enforcement as they do their difficult job in cities and towns around the
country, viewers get a behind-the-scenes look at the excitement that no
scripted drama can reproduce.
Wednesday
Texas S.W.A.T.
In this unprecedented non-fiction series, Court TV takes advantage of
exclusive access to the live, on-the-spot, heart-racing action of S.W.A.T.
teams from a dozen Texas cities including Dallas, Houston and San Antonio.
Experienced war journalist Jeff Chagrin takes viewers along for the ride with
these elite crime-fighting experts as they use the latest technology and
tactics to handle every crisis situation, from defusing bombs to negotiating
hostage situations.
Thursday
Hot Pursuit
From high-speed chases, to dangerous crashes, this high-adrenaline
caught-on-tape series features the most amazing police footage ever
captured -- and much of it is taken from the dashboard -- mounted cameras in
the police vehicles themselves.
Friday
Anatomy of Crime
This one-hour documentary-style series dissects the greatest issues in the
world of law enforcement from both sides of the law, taking an unflinching
look at everything from career criminals to prison punishment.
