Time to pull the plug on Cop Shows?

At the very least the glorification of these people rings pretty hollow now...

The type of officers they depict are about as real as the hobbits, dwarves and elves.

5. That's pretty funny. Maybe they should develop an elf cop show.

4. I don't have a TV most times.

I do part of the year. My deceased wife would get hooked on the cops and robs, lawyers and court and medical soap operas.

It’s time to develop something else. When I do have a TV to watch, it’s news, weather and documentaries.

I’m an old guy.

6. Fully...not by shutting down illegally (as trump would like to do were roles reversed). Don't watch!

First off, it’s always a dead woman. Disgusting, even showing post mortems and super grim death as entertainment. It is gross.

Second, even Hawaii 5-0 is so pointedly not following the law re abuse of detained people. Treating violence to suspects as if it’s just fine. Even sometimes water boarding. I always thought they were being used to desensitize us.

WORD. Your post is on point.
