    Then you have to admit the show definitely glorifies Greggs, the only negative bit about her (by season 2) is how she risks herself too much for her partner’s liking, which is just heroism propaganda by another name.

    In season one, doesn’t she participate in beating someone (a minor?) when they’re forced to raid one of the projects. I always thought that moment was to showcase she was just as much cop as the rest.

      Yeah, I think it was Brodie or Wallace who push down the old cop then the whole squad beats up the kid. I feel like it was glossed over somewhat, and she ends the season a hero for taking 2 bullets and not perjuring on Wee-Bey shooting her when Bunk asks her to ID. Anyway, GalaxyBrain is right, I’m literally 1 season in so I can’t draw any conclusions lol.

        The show definitely develops a huge amount over the seasons. The kinda one note characters from season 1 are gone by season 5. Half of them even stop being cops.
