Panic 911 (also stylized as PANIC 9-1-1) is an American documentary television series that airs on A&E and debuted on November 29, 2012.[1] A second season began airing on August 8, 2013.

PANIC 9-1-1 returned for a third season on June 25, 2022.[2] The one-hour docudrama aired Saturdays at 10:00 p.m. ET (9:00 p.m. CT).[3]

Premise

The docudrama series follows and reenacts the events of real 9-1-1 calls, including actual audio. The urgent life-and-death situations unfold between emergency dispatchers and frantic callers. Within each episode, the 9-1-1 call narrates what is happening, while interviews with those involved are also included with their first-hand details.[4]

Each episode opens with the following:

These stories are based on actual 9-1-1 calls, some of which have been edited for dramatic purposes. They contain dramatizations of certain events.

According to A&E: PANIC 9-1-1 is an innovative series featuring dramatic 9-1-1 calls as they play out in “real time”. Three calls per episode deliver nail-biting tension, bone-chilling dread, courage and heroism while capturing raw and inspiring tales of humanity. First-person interviews, graphics and recreations further help bring the calls to life.[5]
