What is reno 911 defunded?

"Reno 911!" was a comedy television series that aired on Comedy Central from 2003 to 2009. The show followed the fictional Reno Sheriff's Department as they patrolled the streets of Reno, Nevada.

In 2020, amidst the widespread calls for police reform and racial justice, there were discussions about defunding or reforming police departments across the country. Some fans and critics of the show started questioning whether "Reno 911!" should be defunded or taken off the air due to its portrayal of law enforcement.

Ultimately, Comedy Central decided to cancel the show in 2020, citing budget constraints and the desire to shift their focus towards new programming. The decision to cancel the show was not directly related to calls for defunding the police, but some have speculated that the changing cultural attitudes towards law enforcement may have played a role in the show's demise.
