Police Ten 7 (titled Ten 7 Aotearoa during 2022) is a New Zealand reality television show, devised, created and produced by Ross Jennings for Screentime with the assistance of the New Zealand Police for TVNZ 2, a channel owned by public broadcaster TVNZ. The show profiled wanted offenders and asks the public (viewers) to help the police in their search for them. In addition, the programme followed the work of police officers in their patrols and other police activities. In February 2023 TVNZ cancelled the series. By that time, the series had produced a total of 750 episodes across 29 seasons.[2][3]
