I agree with you, but I feel this way about all cop shows, to some extent? Just like medical shows are unwatchable if you know a few things about medicine and how war movies are unwatchable if you're an actual soldier and so on, because things are never done RIGHT on shows/movies. So how do you manage to watch anything then? I have a few cops in the family, so I'm really aware of how WRONG the shows get it, but I just accept it just like I accept fake!medicine and fake!warfare and fake!martial arts.

This. I wracked my brain trying to think of a fictional show that portrays law enforcement with some degree of accuracy but I couldn't think of a single one.

Southland is actually an accurate cop show. There have been several cops who blogged about various episodes and all the things the show did right.

Fact is actual law enforcement is pretty boring. I work with detectives who only investigate sex crimes, which if you watched SVU you'd think was one crisis after another instead of dull reports and phone calls. Heartbreaking at times? Definitely. But zero on the entertainment scale.

Homicide: Life on the Street was a very accurate law enforcement show (for the first five seasons, anyway), largely because it was based off of a nonfiction book about Baltimore detectives and the writer of the book was onboard for the show. Lots of drudgery, lots of paperwork, lots of moral ambiguity, lots of very slow but thorough investigations.

Check it out if you get the chance, the first five seasons are really good (don't get me started on 6 and 7)

I had to stop watching one of my favourite shows with my nurse and radiologist friends, because they kept on freaking out every time a character was told to turn off their phone while in the emergency department.

Radiologist friend says she lets people answer their phones while she's giving them x-rays.
