Gendarmeries are typically a branch of the nation's military and act as law enforcement for civilian populations. As someone already pointed out, the Posse Comitatus prohibits the military of the United States as acting as such. This doesn't apply to the National Guard when it is under state authority...but when Guardsmen are called up to Federal service, the Posse Comitatus applies.

That was a really stupid show. The acting was so cheesy and it looked like it was recorded on a camcorder.
