It is a television program that is always entertaining and dramatic but never boring. Cops is a long running documentary style television series that follows the activities of law enforcement personnel from marshals, constables, sheriffs, and beat cops as they go about their daily duties. Their job is making the world a better place for the rest of us by cleaning up criminals and making our streets safer. A typical episode of Cops is a half hour broken up into three segments which can be thought provoking or filled with action. We see the "seedy" side of life and those who find out that crime does not pay when they head off to jail. There is no narrator and no music to entertain, just the cold hard facts of life on the streets of big cities everywhere. Episodes have been shot in many foreign countries and they all have the good versus evil theme no matter where they are. Each episode begins with the "Bad Boys" theme and ends with a police voice stating "I've got them at gunpoint!" It is reality programming at its best.

If your interests run to exciting battles among fierce samurai and shogun warriors or the calming exotic and beautiful geisha in a historic period of time the PBS program titled Japan: Memoirs of a Secret Empire will most definitely be appealing. Going back to the sixteenth century in which Japan is seen to be a warlike society that is ruled by daimyo warlords and the violence committed by samurai warriors is a daily occurrence. In 1543 Portuguese merchants, who were the first Europeans to arrive in Japan, found themselves to be welcome as they set about converting that nation to Christianity. At the same time a low ranked daimyo family member was born and became a samurai called Tokugawa Ieyasu. He is held as a hostage during much of his childhood and when finally released takes claim on his family domain. Empires come and go but this one lasts for almost 250 years before peace and prosperity take the place of violent rulers who claim control over the lives of many. Once the isolation of this great country is overthrown they begin to prosper and modernize their way of life.
