Over the past month, I've binge-watched about 40 episodes of the 'Rookie' (the cop show). Humble thoughts?
1. It's like Adam-12, except on steroids'.
2. I'd say per episode.....there's at least one-hundred rounds of ammo fired, and about 95-percent of time....no one ever gets hit by the bullets.
3. I've come to the frame of mind that I would never step foot in LA ever again after watching this show.
4. Virtually every single fed LE character guy.....is either an idiot or can't be trusted.
5. I would guess at least three police cars are shot-up completely for each show....leaving me to wonder if this the norm in real life.
6. You almost never see any officer eating a donut.
7. The more that the show develops....it's more of a soap opera than a cop show.
8. I sat and watched the one episode where a rookie-cop character got a 'whiff' of cocaine, and suddenly wanted to show his intelligence and visionary insight.....to which it just suddenly hit me....the 'act' given is exactly how VP Harris acts.....when giving these 200-word sentences that make no sense. Just odd, I guess.
9. On my scale of decent modern-day shows....I actually give a decent score on story-text and characters.
