The mental gymnastics of my brain when irl ACAB but I will stan Olivia Benson until the day I die. TV doesn't count.

It's a lot easier to tolerate the copaganda when they're almost exclusively going after rapists.

The thing I found funny about SVU is someone obviously said "shit, Olivia has been at this for decades, she should be a captain by now," so they made her one but she's still taking calls, the first on the scene, and participating in the investigation.

Arguably the copaganda aspect is Olivia treating victims with respect and listening to them.

maybe the copaganda is in hope real cops do like they do on tv 😂

Dude any of the characters on The Wire are eminently likeable. And they're not even portrayed as morally good!

That's tv for you. Who's going to watch a show where the main characters are asholes? (: my auto correct seems to have issues with this word)

I mean, It's Always Sunny did pretty well.

That was the plot of Seinfeld, though.

[–] trolololol 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

And everybody is still surprised it worked lol

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

not really. Jerry was already a popular comedian.

Well, I can't stand stand up, so I assume that's not the reason anyone watches it
