    I honestly like finding those kinds of cop shows. Its like an escapism where a kid watches movies about functional families.

    I’ll watch and be thinking “that’s right, let that person know about social responsibility, they shouldn’t speed in school zones!”.

      I guess that’s the appeal of these shows. They are boring, predictable and repetitive but you see justice being done in a non-complicated everyday setting, assuring you that everything is normal and that the powers that be are acting in your best interest.
