Look at all the bullshit cop shows that are on TV daily. Non of them show "real police". The Wire is the most accurate show about police ever created, ask a cop in a busy city and they will tell you the same. Plus we are made to care about all the characters, not just police, we learn what motivates them. Why they do or act is certain ways. Permalink 2
