When you find yourself trying to remember a show (or any works) that's on the tip of your tongue but just out of reach, come here - the collective brain of the TVTropes community can probably help. Post all the details you can remember (examples help). If you're looking for a trope, head over to Trope Finder. Have general questions about tropes? Visit Ask The Tropers!
come on, nobody knows? maybe it wasn't actors, maybe it was regular people. but i don't think so. and maybe it was just funny like in a stupid way and not in a dry way, i don't remember, Could have been either way. and i still don't know what they were, park rangers, cops, sheriff? something else? pretty positive it was a small town

Probably not it, but when I think of shows set in small towns I think of Corner Gas. That had 6 seasons though
I know it's a bit recent, and it has no cops, but could it possibly be Letterkenny?
Neither of those are it, I still need help desperately
please help
I have no idea how well this fits (I've never seen it, I literally just came across it in on a trope page tonight and remembered this query). It's set in Dallas, so probably fails the town size requirement but it was a short-lived show about cops that fits the year so I thought I might as well suggest it. Could it be The Good Guys?
Such a long shot but, trailer park boys?
no success yet, i was really hoping this site would finally give me my answer, i have spent sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much time on google, its insane
PLEASE HELP
bump / please help. thanks
Just guessing: Killinaskully?
still no luck. i keep trying to remember but i can't. pretty positive it was a small town, the more i think, it seems to come back as regular people and not actors. kind of every day people being interviewed almost, but maybe not, so possibly not limited to police but also townspeople, but for the life of me i can't come up with more details. it was american television.
please help, this is driving me crazy
i've googled everything i can think of from it and i get no useful results, i can't take it anymore
Wayward pines maybe?
Parks and Recreation
Is it the Red Green show? The timeline might be wrong (It ran from 1998 to 2006 but I think it's still in syndication in some places).
I still need help, The show i'm looking for is not anything that has been mentioned yet. Red Green show is great though.
Sounds a little like “Northern Exposure”? But was from the 90’s

I'll throw in Bakersfield P.D., but again it was from the '90s.

Try a show literally called "Small Town Security." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Town_Security)
I only remember it from clips on "The Soup," but it checks all your boxes. (Reality show, small town, American, kooky people in interviews, etc.)
OMG!!!!! I just found it!!!!! It was called small town security! I’m so fucking stupid and couldn’t remember shit about it that’s why my hints were useless and why it took me SO LONG to find it, I can’t fucking believe it, thank fuck! Only downside is that it’s not in demand, not sure how I’ll find episodes, I guess that’s my next project. Jesus Christ!
And of course when I find it and log in here to post, someone else answer it two months ago lol thanks wish I had come back here earlier
Literally found it on my own 5 minutes ago before posting here ROFL
- On demand, not “in” demand. Screw this P.O.S. phone
and of course i can't find it available to watch anywhere cable, netflix, or hulu. i'm not about to pay for it on amazon itunes or google either, oh well :/
NOT BRICKLEBERRY NOT NORTH WOODS LAW NOT COPS NOT RENO 911
it was some tv show only a couple seasons max, i can't remember if it was real or actors, i think it was actors though, like a mockumentary, it was like a small town, think of it as if every character / actor was nick offerman, that type of comedy. either very late 2000's like 08/09 to about 2015 at the newest, i can't remember, i know my clues have been useless i apologize but i NEED to see whatever this show was again, or i'm checking myself in.
