New York City has sued to block a documentary about the police department fronted by celebrity psychologist Dr. Phil that local officials say is "extremely problematic."

In a lawsuit filed Wednesday, the city argues episodes of the documentary "Behind the Badge," which was given the green light by former mayor Eric Adams, "pose an imminent threat to the life and safety of active NYPD officers."
