Greg WilsonSo, so tired of cop shows. I want a series about three generations of an activist family. The grandparents were part of the anti-war/civil rights movement in the 60s. One of their kids is a slightly conservative gay corporate lawyer, the other manages a community center, and her kid is a trans college activist who's angry all the time. Throw in friends (and enemies) for all three generations, and start filming.
Nicole ParsonsCop shows are a type of influence peddling.
They tell soothing fables about budget-constrained, sloppily trained, & angry-at-the-world people.
It tells lies about 'dedicated professionals willing to go the extra mile', 'getting to the truth", & the "bad guy always gets punished".
Don't get me started on the social consequences of the romance genre & their unrealistic perceptions on human relationships.
