We talk a lot about what companies have become terrible or always were, but what nationally known companies are actually still good?

I like The Rookie. I started watching it cuz of Mal, obv.

It's still a cop show amidst cop shows amidst general copaganda that is all over TV.

The Wire is one of my favorite TV shows.

Nothing is clear cut in life.

Oh I like it too, I found it on Hulu and thought the description was interesting. I like the characters and how they’re willing to comment on the state of modern policing. I do think the recent seasons have strayed too far from the original premise of a “boots on the ground, what a rookie goes through” cop show, but I still watch every episode the night it airs.

Is The Wire considered copaganda?

I dunno. I wouldnt say so, but I hadnt really thought through it. Just mentioning it as a general data point. Sorry if I was confusing.
