I'm a computer guy, and every time I watch a show that has anything to do with computers I'm always complaining that the writers are full of 💩 💔 (That's not even a real IP address!).
I assume that cops, lawyers, and doctors are the same about cop, lawyer, and doctor shows respectively.

My question is, are there any shows that depict procedure faithfully?

For example, I've watched The Expanse, and I suspect that they run all of the physics by an expert to make the show more realistic.

@Red_Shirt_Dude An interesting hacker series is The Undeclared War. To make hacking/programming more interesting, they do a sort of 'mind palace' visualization structure.

The expanse they take a number of poetic departures, but there is one specific scene that drove me bonkers (and didn't annoy anyone else). In a scene where something is spinning for 'gravity', outer space is above them, and the center of rotation is below. Why it bugs me so much, no idea.
