What a great show! No propaganda, agenda or any political BS. Characters are very well developed. You care about them, you love them. I really can't say anything bad about this show. It's great. Definitely deserves 10/10!

I loved this show in the first couple of seasons, and then it started going a bit silly. But I kept watching it as the character development has been such you are keep interested in the characters.

I strongly believe that this is a propaganda show set up to change peoples perception of the police force (in the US).

Watching world events/news and US citizens hate the police. And they reasons are perfectly justified (to an outsider of the US).
BUT you love these people [police] they are so inherently good and honest and never stand for any corruption. The plots and storylines are so far from reality that it (at times) is totally unbelievable. But none the less, fun to watch.

Really good. Like really good. 

The way it navigated through the drama following George Floyd's death was really good. A balance between a need for reform and a need for police. Well done.

It started off REALLY good, and I was getting into it.  It's one of those shows my wife watches that I would reply with "I liked it more when they called it Hillstreet Blues," and then I would joke that "what are they going to call it in season two or three, they didn't think through the title, did they?" But it started growing on me from the start, and it was only teasing.  I was actually getting into it.

And then 2020 happened and it took a HARD left wing turn  It fell apart.  It took a bit of an ACAB stance, which is awkward in a police drama.  It started to do the who leftist lecture thing.  The "inappropriate" relationships according to the left broke up.  It became crap.  So much so that I started calling it "The Wokie."

But then it slowly started to veer back to an actual cop show again. The characters that I was getting into when it started started to return to the same characters and not just the same woke stereo-types.  Personalities came back to them, actual individual personalities, which seems to be one of the biggest problems with leftist media, they can't give people personalities, they just give them gender and races and sexualities and mistake that for actual character.

In other words, it redeemed itself.  It started being a police drama again.  It started to be an ensemble cast of compelling characters again.  It even got rid of the worst woke characters they injected and brought the whole thing back to the original cast. The politics vanished, and it became about entertainment again.

It's a GREAT example of how to make fix a show after a heavy injection of politics.
