Conversely, dramas where:

  • Multiple murders happen in a small town with barely any police
  • Suspect is gasp the police chief's son!
  • Lots of intrigue very drama! How will we catch this killer? We are just small town cops!

Call the fucking FBI - that's their whole thing. I get rugged individualism but it's 2024, you've got phones, nearest field office is probably a few hours drive away, I'm sure they'd be happy to come help. It's not the 1840s anymore.

NO BIG-TIME FEDS ARE GOING TO TAKE OVER A CASE IN MY TOWN! I'M THE SHERIFF HERE!

After watching a video on how local police officers wrongfully arrested FBI agents and/or breaking undercover agents cover, I totally understood why they're stereotyped as having so much disdain to the local police force in the movies and TV series.
