What shows have you grown out of, or has society grown out of? Were they popular in their time? Were they not so much? Why do you feel like they've aged? I'll leave mine below

I'm not a fan of cops, but I do like the occasional cop show. I think it's the portrayal of idealized actions. Bad cops get punished, only bad guys get shot, innocent people aren't held in questioning until they confess just to leave, most don't show casual use of excessive force, etc.
