I've rewatched this an uncountable amount of times. Every episode. There is nothing more satisfying than the three stages of legal entrapment:
1. Why don't you take a seat right over there 2. We're doing a story... (cameras roll out) 3. Cops using excessive force
Peak entertainment and public service. The predators they catch are genuinely some of the worst, most disturbing people on planet Earth. The worst part is that many of them have done it before and will do it again.
They roll out an entire camera crew who doesn't even do anything. The vast majority of the shots are from the hidden cameras and mics. Its all designed to make them as miserable as possible and ruin their life. Even more satisfying knowing that they also get prison justice.
The main reason they cancelled it is because some notable local political figure got caught and shot himself before they could have him take a seat right over there. Who cares. Not a good reason to cancel the show. Dude shouldn't exist on planet Earth anyways. Watch Hansen vs Predator on Youtube. Each episode has about 40m+ views. People eat this **** up.
Must watch. The cleanest, best pleasure.

'To Catch a Predator' is iconic. The series has achieved legendary status and still to this day, over 15 years later, the series still has a cult following.
I have a hard time pinpointing why I enjoy this series so much. Part of it is seeing these creeps get exposed for who they are. Another part is seeing them spin a crazy web of lies, thinking they can just talk their way out of trouble, without realizing the mountain of evidence stacked against them.
It also makes me feel better about my own life. Everyone has skeletons in their closet, but this series allows me to feel much better about myself. No matter how many mistakes I've made in life, I have never messed up as badly as the people who get exposed in this series.

One of the most important pieces of TV that still resonates to this day. It's a show about Chris Hansen catches predators who conversate with children.
The producers nailed the sting format for the show. I will kiss them if I ever get to mee them. It's just top notch TV.
Also the way it raised awareness for this type of crime, this show most likely saved kids from being victims.
My favorite thing is how it spawned some of the greatest communities ever. This show still makes waves.
TCaP is prime investigative television, easily one of my favorites of the genre, and I'm not even a TV series person, believe it or not.
