Alaska State Troopers Returns to TV After 10-Year Hiatus
9 Dec
Summary
- Alaska State Troopers returns to A&E for its ninth season.
- The show originally aired on National Geographic from 2009 to 2015.
- The ninth season is set to premiere on A&E on January 7.
The popular reality series Alaska State Troopers is set to return to television screens after a ten-year absence. A&E has picked up the show for its ninth season, bringing back the Cops-style documentary following the dedicated troopers who patrol extensive areas across Fairbanks and the Mat-Su Valley. These officers are responsible for providing public safety to over 230 remote villages, many of which are only accessible by air or water.
The series originally captivated audiences on National Geographic, running from 2009 until 2015. Its initial run concluded when the Alaska Department of Public Safety decided to end production, citing a need to refocus on their primary duties without external distractions. Despite the state not receiving direct payment for filming, the show did benefit from state subsidies during its original broadcast.
Alaska State Troopers joins a growing list of revived programs on A&E, including Duck Dynasty: The Revival. The upcoming ninth season promises to deliver more compelling content from the Last Frontier, with its premiere slated for January 7. This revival marks a significant moment for fans who have missed the show's unique portrayal of law enforcement in one of America's most challenging environments.
