Pretty much the worst thing about The Wire is that I can't get past cops giving a shit about anything
That's an odd take, since I think the show makes it pretty clear that it is a tiny minority of cops which actually gives a shit, and of those and even tinier minority are actually capable at their jobs and they are getting hassled about it from every senior officer all the while.
What? Have you actually seen the show? Most of the cops are assholes, especially up the chain of command who just want to make themselves look good. Several examples of them just wanting to close the case without caring about the truth.
It’s actually one of the reasons why I love the show so much. Even the “good cops” have their own issues to deal with.
