The Book Young Justice did this in it's last few issues, I seem to recall.
Didn't get too developed, but it was cool to see Robin as "Mr. Sarcastic."

I had heard about this, too. I haven't seen anything else on it though. I was
actually going to audition.

Check Wildguard. It's a comic about a contest to find the members of a teram
of heroes. Interesting stuff.

The problem with the "Cops" format is that unlike cops, superheros
have no real reason to cooperate with such a show. The cops
do it for PR because that's important to get public cooperation
and to get support for their funding. I dunno, maybe hero mutants
would do it to combat anti-mutant prejudice.
