i said "a plurality (and majority, up to ~75%)". I was wrong. Sorry. it's 70% on at least CBS, and more than 50% across all networks. > Of the 69 scripted television dramas that aired on the big four US broadcast networks (CBS, NBC, Fox, and ABC) in the last year-and-a-half, 35 were about law enforcement, according to a Quartz analysis. CBS was responsible for 16 of those on its own. About 70% of the network’s dramatic programming from 2019-2020 were about cops. [0] And that's "Dramas", i guess if you consider "all programming, including for example comedies" the ratio goes down to a peak of 28.7%. however: > Even many of the non-cop dramas on these channels are so cop-adjacent that one could reasonably argue they are also about law enforcement. CBS’s Madam Secretary follows the fictional US secretary of state, a former CIA analyst. Evil follows a forensic psychologist investigating supernatural incidents. Blood & Treasure follows a former FBI agent teaming up with an art thief to track down a terrorist. And now, you said: >> You also stereotyped a whole generation I didn't, if i stereotyped anyone it was cinematographers that grew up with that as "normal", or, if they didn't grow up with that, at least consider it normal.
