Unfortunately the truth is more complicated than most people's individual feels and it's tough for a lowest-common denominator network procedural to realistically deal with that. I agree that SVU has been doing a decent job of it since 2020. All three L&Os are more nuanced than you would think. But they're also never going to fully lean into an ACAB stance because they're trying to appeal to the largest group of people possible. And that includes not only people who are pro-cop but also people who aren't but still want comfort food TV. And a lot of the time it feels like the stories where the cops are the "bad guys" in the episodes aren't exactly going full on in the other direction. And ultimately they are portraying "good cops."
