 Lately I've been watching these 'In the Line of Duty' movies on Prime. These are a lose series of TV movies NBC made between 1988 and 1997. They each cover then recentish true crime stories and the role various law enforcement organizations played in resolving the case. 

The quality ranges from pretty good to kind of bad, they are mostly of interest for the number of recognizable names and faces that show up in them, Samuel L. Jackson, Rod Steiger, Alan Arkin, Melissa Leo ect. Someone could ask me "Nate, with all the political correctness and wokeism in the world now could the networks get away with making movies that so positively depict law enforcement today?" Well I'm affraid my answer would have to be no, because the networks don't make TV movies anymore.
