One of the shows I have enjoyed watching lately is The Rookie, a police series available on Netflix. The Rookie is about John Nolan, a man who decides later in life to become a police officer, making him the oldest rookie in the department.
The tone of The Rookie is a lot lighter than many other police shows, but the series can still hit you because it is not only action. It also portrays the human side of being a police officer in Los Angeles well.
It is a procedural, which means every episode has a separate story. That is sometimes a shame, because I do like it when a series has a running thread through all the episodes to bind everything together. But it does make The Rookie an ideal show to watch a few episodes of now and then, and then ignore for a week.
