Why do so many shows end up being cop shows? (slrpnk.net)

I was looking for a new TV show to watch on prime and started Colony, and half way through the first episode it is revealed it is a cop show. It looks like there is an anti cop element to it, but I am tired of cop shows at all.

I started to watch Blindspot a while back, but that was an FBI show.

While scrolling Hulu the other day I saw a show with Sweet Dee from Always Sunny... Yup another cop show.

Any good, not cop, shows on Prime?

I think I have watched all of good omens, loved that. I lost interest in the boys between seasons 2 and 3. I was great for a while. Same thing with invincible. I may give them both a try again.

I love Invincible. The Boys I find fun, but shallow. I don't think I'd recommend it if you weren't into it 2 seasons in.

If you haven't watched The Boys: Diabolical, I highly recommend it. IMO it's way better than the main show. Every episode is a different story with different animation. Some are canon to the show, one is canon to the comic, and others are neither.
