My favorite thing about it is this the more you watch cop shows and cop movies the more you notice a pattern. The biggest villain for all of those shows, the most consistent threat? Internal affairs. It's like every single movie and every single series it has shown up at least once. Those God damn Internal Affairs people stopping good cops from doing what they need to do. It's maybe the single strongest trend throughout all of these shows and movies.

Hell it was even a plot point in Psych. The show about fake psychic detectives had a bad guy Internal Affairs officer.

Reminds me of that one cop show from the BBC that covers an internal affairs and anti-corruption team. It's called Line of Duty.
