I really like how Brooklyn 99 addressed this at the end.
-
B99 was a very good comedy that took place in an absolute fantasy world.
But hey, that's sitcoms for you. Nobody in Big Bang Theory has to spend a season wiggling out of date rape allegations. Nobody in 7th Heaven gets molested by a priest. Nobody in Cheers beats their spouse.
-
Well, yes. If you expect any TV show to be a 100% unbiased, accurate representation of reality, you're an idiot.
That doesn't mean they can't address societal issues in a meaningful way.

Addresses what? That entire series, especially the final season, is all copaganda about "Sure, there are corrupt cops out there, but there are also squads on your side that are breaking the law in order to enforce their own morals, so you shouldn't hate cops"
-
Yes, they addressed that there's corruption in the LEO system beyond what I've seen any other cop show do. An extremely popular member of the cast quit the force because of the George Floyd shit. What other show even addressed it?
I'm waiting for some examples.
Also, it's a fucking sitcom. Fuck off with your negative bullshit. A fucking sitcom did what no actual procedural cop drama would.

Final Season:
"Our bad guys, we just realized we're part of the copaganda machine so all the best characters are going to quit the force"
Some people: "Omg that makes it worse why didn't you all kill yourselves instead?"
-
Okay tap the brakes there. It was one character who quit the force. They addressed it in one episode. Then they never bring it up again and she just hangs out for the rest of the season and nothing changes. I like the show but you know, they weren't exactly breaking down barriers. It was a really rough Awkward episode it's probably the worst one of the entire show.

Two leave, I know what I said. Cheddar obviously was never a bastard in the first place.
