Sadly I can't imagine a show like DS9 which made you think about moral ambiguity being made today, especially in the US. The "good guys" (i.e., the Bajorans) were terrorists (and religious ones at that). In some episodes, Kira openly discussed the fact that as part of the resistance, they had to accept killing civilians and other Bajoran as collateral damage.

  For better or worse, it's really hard to find shows where one side is clearly in the right and the other is clearly wrong.

"Arrow" is pretty cheesy but it is (loosely) about the heroic main character trying not murder anymore and his murderous past always forcing him back into it. His sister periodically goes crazy and kills people to calm down (maybe they cured her of that by now?).
