What really bugs me when TV cops are extra rude and cranky towards witnesses (not suspects) simply because the witnesses failed to be in the right place at the right time and looking in the right direction to get the information the cops really need. Guys, you want these people to help you, don't make them hate you by acting like this! It's not their fault they don't know anything!

Then there's CSI, where they'd often act not just rude, but snobby because they were oh so much smarter than anyone else. Like that episode where the apartment building collapsed and Marg Helgenberger's character shows up, a guy asks why forensics is there and she's all "LOL, 'cause the building fell down, dumbass!" I thought, "No, that's actually a perfectly valid question. She's not a building inspector, she's with the police and even if the police should be involved in this case, it's not like he'd necessarily know that and he's within his rights to t least ask for an explanation."

This bothers me, too. Sometimes the cops are so blatantly rude to the witnesses that it's a small wonder anyone would help them. Just about every cop show does this at some point, but SVU was so bad at it (and the flat-out abuse of suspects) that I quit watching.
