I like “The Rookie”.
But all these cops obsessing over the letter of the law, keeping each other in line, caring about perp’s life choices and victim’s problems…
This is fantasy. Might as well be Lord of the Rings.
I used to like The Rookie, but honestly after George Floyd I just couldn't stomach any propaganda cop shows anymore.
Those motherfucker CHOCKED the man to death while smiling.
The show tried to pay lip service to it but honestly nothing they could do could possibly be enough.
This happened to me with Brooklyn 99, than even for a cop show is kinda woke.
Or the Dota show, that V, who has been oppressed by the police all her life became a cop officer on the first episode of the second season.
Well yeah, cause the only other way that story could've gone was "the OG Black Panthers were right, obviously the good guys and revolution is key" which isn't a story that you're allowed to tell.
To be fair, that series pushed that line much more than pretty much anything else I've seen on TV, but they did Ekko so dirty.
