Today’s FROS (For Refreshment Only Sunday) offering is one that is near and dear to my heart . . . hot cops.
Of course, we all have our own favorite TV cops. Here are two of mine:
and
And then, there are the real cops. They’re just as pretty, and — and you can trust me on this — they’re MUCH more interesting.
I found several calendars of Hot Cops, all done for charity, but this one was my favorite, mainly because the guy’s chest is . . . well, it just IS.
Yeah. I liked that, too.
And here is another cop from a calendar. The NJ Cop Calendar:
I feel the need to visit New Jersey. Like oh, yesterday. You can come, too, but I must warn you, WE WILL BE SPEEDING.
Here’s another picture of a real life cop from a calendar of Madrid policemen:
We might need to speed in Spain, too.
And then, of course, there is my favorite Hot Cop of all . . . my very own Hot Cop:
Happy FROS, m’dears! May your week be safe, safe, s-a-f-e! (And even though I KNOW it’s tempting, NO SPEEDING.)

Julie, you’re quite welcome!

I’m drooling over Shemar Moore and I would happily join you on the trip to NJ. Hot Cop is a babe Karen. You are one lucky goddess.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:17 am.
Thanks, Kelly. He’s a sweetie. And I think a trip to NJ is a must-do!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:42 pm.
As an aggressive driver in NJ, I must protest! All those cops who’ve pulled me over wore shrts. I was gypped!!! I paid good money for those stops, I deserve some eye candy.
Nice to see Hot Cop going viral. Looking good!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:47 am.
Fresh, just don’t tell him he’s viral. He’s weird about that sort of thing … Go figure.
As for the NJ cops – what? They wore shirts? And there you are, paying taxes! No fair!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:43 pm.
WOWZA what a way to start a Sunday. Love Mr. Moore he is fine. Nice personal Hot Cop you got there. You lucky girl you.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:54 am.
Thanks, Judy! He’s a keeper.
Glad we could start your week off with a bang!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:44 pm.
Oohhhh! I LOVE hot cops. Any one of those fine policemen could pull me over and handcuff me! Oh, did I say that out loud? Sorry. Hot cops and handcuffs, dreamy thoughts to start off my week! And your personal Hot Cop is swell also
I love real life heroes!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:07 am.
Kelly, real life heroes are the bomb, aren’t they? I’d rather have one real life hero than a hundred actors who play a real life hero.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:46 pm.
What a way to start the day. Is five considered a gaggle of hot cops? Well I’m certainly ogling these fine specimens of our protectors of justice. Your hot cop is special of course!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:29 am.
Dbrown, lol! A gaggle sounds good to me. I’m jonesing for.a trip to NJ. Apparently they don’t wear shirts there and I gotta see!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:48 pm.
Now why can’t our local cops look more like these? I know they are out there, they just need to come to our town. Karen, you really found the pony with your Hot Cop.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 11:13 am.
Eviqn, he’s a worthwhile guy.:) I have seen some locals cops that weren’t FROS worthy, though. Many, in fact. But there are some … Umm mmmm!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:53 pm.
Speeding hell! I’m going to be doing something that merits a strip search when I run into these cops! These guys give a whole new meaning to the words Under. Arrest. !!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 1:12 pm.
Lol! You rock, Louisa!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:53 pm.
I’m going to have to rethink my stance on not breaking the law. And Hot Cop’s looking good, Karen!!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 1:38 pm.
Suzanne, we won’t tell him he’s on the FROS Wall. Not today, anyway. Heh!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:56 pm.
You are a very lucky woman Karen. He is very handsome.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 1:42 pm.
Handsome is nice, but oh, what a terrific sense of humor! That’s what got me. Still does!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:56 pm.
The cops around my University in NY were soooo hot. It was like the precinct of hot cops. Some were even on horses!
My favorite TV cop was officer Bosco from the show Third Watch. He was such an arse… loved him
I’ve always had a soft spot for cops. I think it because they visited our school when I was a kid and always make me fee safe.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 2:28 pm.
Archer, hot cops on horses … You are singing my song! I’ve never seen Third Watch. I hope Netflix has it!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:59 pm.
You must watch!!! It has hot cops, fireman and paramedics
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 11:10 pm.
You’re a very lucky lady, Karen! And I’m thinking I might just have to pick up a new calendar… Ooh, maybe one of those firemen calendars. mmm… Wait, what was I talking about?
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 4:44 pm.
Cheri, I have one on the wall in my office. Loooove that calendar!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:00 pm.
I feel gypped. I got pulled over in NJ for speeding and the cop was NOT a hot cop :grumpy: This was a nice line up though
And yes, your hot cop is best!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 5:01 pm.
Jen B, you were gypped!! Speed some more. Maybe you’ll get lucky next time!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:02 pm.
I’m thinking that this FROS could entice us to be very very good citizens
And how nice to see cops getting some props. I’ve seen lots of hot fireman pix, now its good to see the other side of emergency management getting their due!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 5:51 pm.
Robin, well said! FROS is an equal opportunity eye candy venue. We try to give them all their hotness due.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:05 pm.
Usually I have my cruise control on so I don’t speed and attract the attention of the cops but I might have to rethink that.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 6:53 pm.
Do it, Judy! Do it!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:09 pm.
I’m not sure who’s luckier … you, or hot cop.
n i i i c e….
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 8:12 pm.
Lori, I feel lucky every day. Hearing about some of the things Hot Cop and his fellow officers do at work – truly heroic things – make me appreciate all of them..
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:16 pm.
Better late than never….
Karen, gotta say, you are one lucky lady. I might have to drive on down to Orlando to see if any of Hot Cop’s coworkers are nearly as good looking ;0
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 8:16 pm.
Jen, some are … One of them is all muscled up and is in a calendar, too. Very sexy!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:17 pm.
Ok Hot Cop is yours but could you send a few of them my way? I have been speeding and texting which is law breaking. I promise not to put up a fight. Oh they can handcuff me too.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 8:57 pm.
Ginger, you’re such a *good* citizen to turn yourself in like that! Heh!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:19 pm.
Ahem. I notice you didn’t share YOUR Hot Cop’s chest shot… Thanks for the great FROS!! :>)
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:16 pm.
Gale, he’d be shocked to know his face is up there; I didn’t dare post a chest shot.
Yet. Hee hee!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:20 pm.
say, does your Hot Cop have co-workers as good-looking as he is? LOL thanks for the nice start to our day karen!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:23 pm.
Jam, there’s a big SWAT meet once a year here in Orlando and ohhhhh my!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:22 pm.
That was too awesome! Your cop is pretty hot
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 9:42 pm.
Shaundra, thank you! We aim to please here on Sundays!
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 10:23 pm.
Wow! Hot Cop probably has fun toys to play with
Oops, did I actually say that? I meant, those gorgeous Other Cops probably have fun toys to play with ….But seriously, tell HC that we appreciate him and other real cops for what they do to keep us all safe.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 11:10 pm.
Your Hot Cop looks great.
I have yet to see any cops look that good in Montana. They must all be in your area.
Posted on August 26, 2012 at 11:11 pm.
Obviously the police around here need to shape up!!!
Posted on August 27, 2012 at 3:46 am.
I would love to COP a feel from anyone of these fine Hot Cops…. Thanks for making me feel better…
Posted on August 27, 2012 at 9:29 am.
Ah, the Rock is from my hometown of Bethlehem. But I must say you are a very lucky woman to have your own Hot Cop.
Posted on August 27, 2012 at 6:49 pm.
I love that you call your hubby “Hot Cop”! I call mine “Mr. Wonderful” (no sarcasm intended) but he prefers “SuperMan”.. He is not in law enforcement, but he is wonderful in many different ways. Totally fits my description of what a man should be…
Nice pictures by the way, maybe I need to call SuperMan and tell him there is an emergency at home!
Posted on August 28, 2012 at 9:48 am.
I work for a local government and I can assure you that our cops DO NOT look like these guys. Heck, if there was a cop around here that looked like Shemar Moore my friends and I would have so many speeding tickets it wouldn’t be funny.
Posted on August 28, 2012 at 12:37 pm.
Karen you just made my day. I used to live in Rhode Island where our State Troopers have had a long running reign as best dressed in law enforcement, although I think they finally got taken down. Love a good man in uniform! Especially when they uniform is something else.
Posted on August 28, 2012 at 1:30 pm.
In my ancient years, I’ve found that there are a significant number of hot cops, hot firemen, and hot EMTs. The easiest way to meet some is to attend firemen’s breakfasts, injure yourself and require EMTs to evaluate your injuries, buy tickets to the local policemen’s ball. Love your books.
Posted on August 28, 2012 at 1:42 pm.
thanks for sharing including your own hot cop.
Posted on August 28, 2012 at 11:23 pm.
thx…for shareing and the advice
Posted on August 29, 2012 at 12:23 am.
**sharing**
Posted on August 29, 2012 at 12:24 am.
Well this post certainly perked up my morning! Hello Dwayne Johnson! Another hot cop? Alex O’Loughlin from Hawaii 5-0…yummy.
For the record, I am from Jersey and I have never ever ever seen a cop that hot…Looks like I have some scouting to do…
