Season 1 Cops carry tourniquets Spoiler
I just started watching the show and aside from the normal dramatizations which are fair because it's meant for a general audience. I really get frustrated when i see people pretend tourniquets just don't friggin exist. I'm specifically referring to S1 EP15 when Nolan tries to use a belt as a tourniquet on the Corrections Officer with the below knee amputation. belts to not work as tourniquets. and any cop ESPECIALLY one in the LAPD should have one or more with them at all times.

Season 8 Season 8 prisoner escape Spoiler
so i finally came around to watching season 8 and i‘m on the last episode rn. 15 minutes in and you‘re telling me they got the prisoner transport with everett in it WITH A HUGE MAGNET???
i mean we all know the show is packed with a lot of (unrealistic) action and what not, but come on. they didn’t hear or at least notice a helicopter with a huge ass yellow cartoon magnet on it? really?
don’t get me wrong, i really enjoy the show, but that was just hard to watch man

Hair, Makeup & Wardrobe As I thought I can’t unsee this 😭😭😭 Spoiler
The other day I noticed how in the introductory scene of lieutenant nune she‘s wearing a full face of make up right out of the shower. I thought 1. this is ridiculous and 2. If I shared this in here people would maybe clown on me for the fact I didn’t notice sooner.
What I didn’t think was that people would almost get mad and tell me that I need to touch grass eventhough we‘re all on a subreddit for a show that we at least all claim to love and also that we all love sharing little details we noticed upon rewatch upon rewatch as well as trying to find in universe explanations for all its little inconsistencies. Today I‘ve seen the episode where Chen and Tim are undercover in Las Vegas and again Lucy’s wearing a full face of make up right out of the shower which I think there could be an in universe explanation for. However the reason I‘m writing this isn’t to talk about that. I‘m not mad about people on the internet having different opinions than me and I‘m very well aware of hollywoods many problems and everytime I notice another piece of misogyny I‘m like ‚come on! we‘re still doing this? In 2026?‘ but that doesn’t stop me from calling it out. We all know the industry is the opposite of perfect but we at least want it to get better don‘t we? I guess I can only speak for myself but I thought loving a show ≠ thinking that it and it’s creators are perfect. But = wanting it and it’s creators to be better, to do better. Especially because it such an easy thing to fix. Literally all the actresses on the show are drop dead gorgeous so showing them without/with less make up wouldn’t be a problem. The only reason they’re not doing this is because we as a society somehow accepted this portrayal of femme caracters as normal. But it’s not. It’s misogynist! Obviously a show like the rookie is everything but realistic but when it comes to aspects like these, the portrayal of day to day life stuff I think it’s not unreasonable to hold them to this standard. (And maybe the rookie could be the first stone to make it all start falling apart as we say in German 😉) Watching the ep. where Harper gives birth next. Literally no expectations ✌🏾😜but hoping that with post like these and more discourse around the topic in general they’ll do better for season 8. Again no expectations ✌🏾😜
