Law and Order - New York Is a Character in the Show

Law and order is steam coming out of the streets and hot dogs. To the chat next to the hot dog stand in Wall Street. I mean, it is a character in the show itself. And that, of course, lends it verusimilitude to use a grad school term. It lends the show credibility when it comes to realism because it's supposed to be seen as like these are things cops are really concerned with.
