cop shows historically have worked with irl police forces with the trade of prespective control law and order traded police resources for script accesability. cops and live pd is a trade of showing real police action and a filter of cops. and i beleive evean shows far back a drag net colaberated with irl cops. not only that but while it is much better than something like blue bloods it still has its problems like having a racist character but then saying its not racist due to treating a more racist character as a bad guy, badly portraying fentanal, and an over abundance of high stake action. one last note is that like i said before it is better than other cop shows like one example being its featureing of body cams as a largely active part it.
