pffft, we watched the entire first season of reno 911 in the academy. Since, then I've learned that on every shift, you'll have people that fit those characters. :D

I think it's entertaining. However, just like anything else, when you start to take it out of its context and apply it to the job that we do, you could step on some feelers.
Example: I go to a call, an unwanted guest. I arrive and a drunk guy is banging on his mother's apartment door, wanting in. He doesn't live there, but doesn't want to walk home in the 14 degree weather. He sees us and says, "It's Vic Mackey and Shep." I like the Shield, but I don't know a character named Shep, and my partner and I both have hair so I am not sure who he was calling Mackey. Anyway, we end up arresting him for excessive noise and he starts saying, "I know you guys, if I give you a little dope we can make this go away." Ummm, wrong thing to say, that offends me. And no we didn't find any dope on him...but it would of been nice to add that charge!
