- Top 5 Film/TV discussion: (Theme from PARKS AND RECREATION)

Alright picture the scene (and it’s a great one this week!):

The City is rife with crime and lawlessness. Crooks and crims of all shapes, sorts and sizes are running rough-shot over the land, with corruption creeping all the way up to City Hall on Capitol Hill. And the only person who can bring justice back to our fair city is you. Only you can re-establish law and order, and it is that with which you have been tasked.

But you need inspiration. You need guidance. You need to see the right way to go and the pitfalls to avoid. As the immortal philosopher Tracey Morgan once said, “How the f- you gon know how to be great if you don’t study greatness?! Look at the game tape!”

And so you do; you gather game tapes of your favourite Cop TV shows. But it’s not just about protecting, serving and keeping order. Oh no! There’s the judicial system to think about too. You’ve gotta prosecute the criminals and they need representation. So you gather game tapes of your favourite Legal TV shows. And you’ve got to match them up.

Which brings us to the topic for Top 5 Film/TV discussion for Tuesday’s show...

Top 5 favourite combination of Cop and Legal show. Take two shows that complement each other well and stick them together
