Dumbest program I've ever seen. They know where the crooks are -- how else could they send a limo to pick them up -- so why don't they just arrest them at home? I wish those guys who declared the death of disco would do the same for reality TV. Anything that hasn't been done already isn't worth doing.

Some of these wanted people are destitute, non-violent offenders who grew up poor and had no chance of being perfect like the kids who's parents had the money and connections to bail them out. I could understand if they were rapists, etc. But contempt of court? Fox should've stuck to Cops, but now, I'm boycotting Fox and all of it's show. This isn't helping anyone except money-hungry police states like AZ.

After reading most of the reviews, I decided to watch the first episode. I watched until the first guy was arrested. I couldn't watch the rest of the first episode and had no interest in the other two. (Only 3 episodes Fox? ) The first scene in episode one has an ACTOR briefing officers on how the sting will go down. Good choice of authority for catching these guys!. More than a hand full of under cover cops are sitting around pretending to be ACTORS, or 'real people'.There's no need for anyone, any where to be concerned that any state in the US could ever become a police state if they allow Fox Reality TV in to town. This is flat out juvenile and every single 'cop' involved in this program should be ashamed of themselves, not only for participating in this piece of crap for TV, but for not apprehending the perps before it came to a point of having to 'lure' them into a sting operation in the first place. "Extreme DUI", "Felony Drug Posession".... If you guys and gals had done your job right in the first place, the perps wouldn't have been on the streets.What an absolute embarrassment of police work.

Two opinions at war with each other on this one:1) I'm glad taxpayers are being saved a ton of money AND that law breakers are being apprehended. 2) This seems really snide, however. It's all in such poor taste. It's not just a simple sting where as soon as the criminal shows up they are arrested. If it were I could deal with that easily. But they go through the whole charade for several minutes.I just can't seem to find any entertainment value in this tripe.

This is humiliation, simple as that. If they broke the law then they should be arrested but breaking the law does not mean that you should be humiliated. When the "criminals" came to the location the only reason they didn't get arrested was because Fox was paying to make sure the arrest would be embarrassing to the person who is ALREALDY GOING TO JAIL for the sake of entertainment. This is just adding insult to injury. If tricking people into making fools of themselves on tv is the only way you can catch those criminals then I blame the police for being so inept at they job.
