Not to worry, CBS is trying their hardest to glorify the FBI as model law enforcement in their weekly series FBI where the plot every week is a white Supremacist did something and the angels at the FBI always do the morally right thing.
I wonder if CBS has ever heard of Peter Strozk or Kevin Clinesmith?
Die Hard has one of the few relatively realistic portrayals of the FBI in cinema. The fact that they were written halfway as a caricature and it still comes across accurately says all that needs to be said.
Leverage is also extremely good on that with their only FBI contacts being dunces they lead around into success. Show also leaned heavy into all the complicit corruption of Government, Corporations and the Media. Show was pretty on point about all the higher level collusion to keep the average citizens down and out.
I’d seriously recommend watching “Person of Interest.” The FBI plots are largely around an obsessed agent…. But holy shit does that show hate on the CIA/NSA. Literal monsters who will murder hundreds of people to keep themselves in control. And while I wasn’t super thrilled with the last 2 seasons of it, the core plot of the government partnering with a giant corporation to spy on everyone with no regard for individual rights and eliminating anyone who might commit wrongthink now seems really ahead of its time.
Plus the NYPD is shown as corrupt as the day is long.
Also one of my favorite lines from a TV series: “Kill you? No, I’m not going to kill you. My friend is going to kill you, and I’m going to watch.”
Old X-Files is a pretty good representation of the FBI though. Two good agents are shuffled off to what everyone else thinks of as career-killing crackpot assignments. The rest are irredeemable pieces of shit.
I hate to sound like a hipster, but the X-Files was good before it got popular. Once they got the budget, moved production to LA, and expanded the writing team the stories just started getting irredeemably stupid.
Yea it's pretty open about the whole place being compromised by "Hidden Powers" and the only honest one around is called crazy and stuck in the basement.
I'm rewatching the X-Files right now, so here's the game; replace Mulder's obsession with aliens with antifags. Then it's like the actual FBI, always trying to down play the crazy conspiracy of the idea of antifag.
Been watching Stargate SG1 again lately. Really refreshing to watch something without politically charged subliminal messages. They don't portray the FBI as good one bit, either.
SG-1 was a near perfect balance of action, drama, and humor. 8 seasons of great television. I’d skip seasons 9 and 10 though. The finale of episode 8 was the perfect place to end the show, and the Ori made for a really shitty villain (So powerful the only thing that can stop them is a deus ex machina ending!).
I'm just now starting season three, and I have to agree with you! It's a excellent series, love the characters, action and humor. And thanks for the tip on ending at the season 8 finale. :) I like it much better than Stargate Atlantis, though, granted, I've only seen the first season of that one so far.
I've also just started watching Babylon 5, just finished season one, and was sad to learn that Commander Sinclair, the main lead, left for health reasons and was replaced. I hope the replacement is good, because the series is pretty cool. :)
Yeah, Atlantis suffered from a revolving door on the cast’s trailer. It was fun at first turning plot cliches on their head though. It did seem to lose its sense of direction as it went on though.
Babylon 5 is pretty great though. Garibaldi was my favorite and the actor who played him (Jerry Doyle, rip) was as based as you could get in Hollywood. And don’t worry, captain Sheridan is a great character. Beginning of season 5 drags a bit at the start, but does pick up after a few episodes.
Same. I’ve been rewatching Star Trek, Voyager and DS9. Amazing how they were made in the 80’s but it was way ahead of its time. Also notable they had people of all races and nobody gave a shit. It was actual diversity, not the cake and forced nonsense we have nowadays.
Late 80’s to early 2000’s was a golden age for SciFi TV. Two of the best Trek series (TNG and DS 9. Sorry, Voyager had a lot of problems although I’ll grant that it looks brilliant next to what Alan Kurtzman has done to the franchise), 3 stargate shows, Farscape, Babylon 5 and the X-Files to name a few.
Now a days? The Expanse is good. I’ll admit I enjoyed most of The Orville. But most modern television is crap.
That's why I have stopped watching everything. Movies, tv shows. It's really like the sun glasses from They Live. Everywhere you look in this country is just blatant propaganda, commercialism and ads ads ads. Sometimes I just want to be inserted back into the matrix.
Im just glad to see the masses reject all the corrupt institutions in this country. The backlash was culminating and then they unleashed covid on us. Just like before September 11 2001 they were losing their grip on power while the masses were waking up. The Great Awakening is happening. Not the way Q has put it, but like every psy op or conspiracy, there is a nugget of truth to it. They are losing their grip all across the world and this seems to me to be a desperate attempt. We will rise up.
No, they ALL have agendas. Just different ones to get us to where we are now. For instance lier, earlier shows focuses on how moms of house should be getting out to earn her own money, become more independent while the daughters became more "fashionable" whores and sons more douchebag jerks.
Silence of the lambs was on yesterday and I thought the same thing. Today, Buffalo Bill would be a hero - a tranny democrat who loved his dog and wild life.
In real life the FBI could never catch him. They would've received 30 leads and ignored them because they were busy following a grandma who voted wrong.
Reminder; they don't solve crimes. They operate as a democrat Gestapo targeting political opposition and framing them for fake crimes to flip against their family or friends.
Hoover clung to power for almost 50 years as America's secret police chief, maintaining his position largely through the voluminous files he accumulated on the peccadilloes of prominent politicians: financial, sexual, and criminal.
The White House FBI files controversy of the Clinton Administration, often referred to as Filegate, arose in June 1996 around improper access in 1993 and 1994 to FBI security-clearance documents. Craig Livingstone, director of the White House's Office of Personnel Security, improperly requested, and received from the FBI, background reports concerning several hundred individuals without asking permission. The revelations provoked a strong political and press reaction because many of the files covered White House employees from previous Republican administrations, including top presidential advisors. Under criticism, Livingstone resigned from his position. Allegations were made that senior White House figures, including First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, may have requested and read the files for political purposes, and that the First Lady had authorized the hiring of the underqualified Livingstone.
I cannot watch movies or TV shows anymore period. It's all agenda pushing. Not that I was giving them money before but at this juncture, not even for free.
This is why I prefer old Westerns, where the bad guys get what's coming to them without anyone protesting that they were just going to the store for some skittles.
Most of the tv shows that have three letter agencies in them are chalk full of trannies, gays (both sexes), or a fucking alien that is all of the above. It's all trash now. At least back in the old days of X-files, Mulder was straight and hated pedophiles. What a stark difference these days.
I dont know, that Jimmy Stewart film was pretty good, and he was a stand up guy.
But its worth remembering from even back in the day the shenanigans that Hoover played to get ahead of Melvin Purvis and others, and the allegations of perversion levelled at him.
The FBI has always had a big political footprint, and its really only gone to the dogs since Hoover went to meet Jesus, and the body politic stacked its upper deck with political appointments.
For all the allegations of highly suspect predilections, old Edgar did a fine job of controlling huckster politicians for many years. But thats all gone now, and its likely the FBI is controlled by just the sort of folks that Hoover would have run out of town. Basically, politicians will never forget how their style was crimped during Edgar Hoover's tenure, and you can bet they'll never let that happen again. So the FBI is just another police body stuffed fat with safe jobs that will attract a nice pension after 20 years.
Looked at the first episode of the current FBI TV show when it began some years back. Turned it off in disgust after five minutes or so. The anti-Republican / conservative bias was nauseating. Only watch older US cop / crime shows these days, except for Bosch and perhaps American Detective if it ever comes back, Currently enjoying Major Crimes again, but even there the FBI content is worrisome at times, especially the arrogance.
I don't watch movies or TV at all. It's ALL propaganda.
Even the older shows and I just started seeing it when I was getting into enjoying MeTv, which I can't even stand now.
Episode of The Carol Burnett Show had guest Pat Caroll and in the scene she is stuffing herself with cake while Vicki Lawrence's character comes in with clean shaven head saying it's the new unisex look and her newborn child is genderless and nameless and will choose its name and gender at age 21 as "its 1976 now". 🙄
Soon all modern entertainment will look the same to you, it's not just the FBI. It's all propaganda promoting their atheist communist ideology and submission to authority. Hollywood and the media conglomerates are partners with academia in the propaganda machine that indoctrinates the masses.

I enjoy die hard, fbi are dumbasses in it
Fun fact Bruce Willis. is one of the few actors, that is openly against leftism.
That would certainly explain why so many in Hollywood say he's "hard to work with."
Lol ... and the LAPD too ... it is the perfect movie
The one LAPD cop with common sense was the beat cop Carl Winslow.
The higher up the chain of command the more incompetent leadership was. Pretty accurate.
Most movies the FBI are the bad guys trying to catch the heroo
Not to worry, CBS is trying their hardest to glorify the FBI as model law enforcement in their weekly series FBI where the plot every week is a white Supremacist did something and the angels at the FBI always do the morally right thing.
I wonder if CBS has ever heard of Peter Strozk or Kevin Clinesmith?
Don't forget the Clean Cut Muslim Superstar Agent
Why don't we start making movies where that portray the fbi accurately--that is corrupt and partisan arm of the dnc?
House of cards ... but that one got destroyed quite quickly 🧐🤔
Die Hard has one of the few relatively realistic portrayals of the FBI in cinema. The fact that they were written halfway as a caricature and it still comes across accurately says all that needs to be said.
It needed more fat, frumpy, muffin-top having, ugly, dysgenic, mystery-meat dykes though. At least to be realistic today.
Leverage is also extremely good on that with their only FBI contacts being dunces they lead around into success. Show also leaned heavy into all the complicit corruption of Government, Corporations and the Media. Show was pretty on point about all the higher level collusion to keep the average citizens down and out.
I still love Law & Order SVU until about season 4. Some of the later seasons have fantastic stories sprinkled in with the bullshit.
I’d seriously recommend watching “Person of Interest.” The FBI plots are largely around an obsessed agent…. But holy shit does that show hate on the CIA/NSA.

Also one of my favorite lines from a TV series: “Kill you? No, I’m not going to kill you. My friend is going to kill you, and I’m going to watch.”
Also, it eerily predicted Snowden.
Wokeness destroyed FBI Agents Mulder and Scully. I stopped watching the reboot halfway. The storylines and the actors kneeling was too much.
Old X-Files is a pretty good representation of the FBI though. Two good agents are shuffled off to what everyone else thinks of as career-killing crackpot assignments. The rest are irredeemable pieces of shit.
Old X-Files was good.
Old X-Files would have loved the Trump era with the revealing of the Deepstate.
Never bothered past season 10
I hate to sound like a hipster, but the X-Files was good before it got popular. Once they got the budget, moved production to LA, and expanded the writing team the stories just started getting irredeemably stupid.
Good u stopped watching, not cause of wokeness(1 ep had a muslim blowup a building with people in it, but cause it had the worst pos ending evr, makes the way got ended look like the ending of bttf
I watched Armageddon the other night and I was rooting for the asteroid.
At least in x-files it lets you follow the story while agreeing they are snakes.
Yea it's pretty open about the whole place being compromised by "Hidden Powers" and the only honest one around is called crazy and stuck in the basement.
And that's only because they need people to do the bitch work and go out and deal with the crazy shit that happens in this country.
You want to meet honest police & FBI? Go to the rural areas they're posted at. Because they don't make it in big cities or metro areas.
I'm rewatching the X-Files right now, so here's the game; replace Mulder's obsession with aliens with antifags. Then it's like the actual FBI, always trying to down play the crazy conspiracy of the idea of antifag.
Most people here are anti-fags...
IMO the whole FBI is Cancer Man x 1000.
Been watching Stargate SG1 again lately. Really refreshing to watch something without politically charged subliminal messages. They don't portray the FBI as good one bit, either.
I just started watching Stargate SG1 for the first time and really am enjoying it for the same reasons. :) Great, fun show!
Good ol' Space MacGyver
Jack's truly awesome. :) And Daniel is the best example of a 'masculine geek' ever created. :D
Heh yep, SG1 dialed in a great character dynamic for a good chunk of its run
Indeed.
Cree!
Definitely true!

Just go back in time. There are plenty of great movies and TV shows from the pre-woke era.
That's what I'm doing. It's unbelievable how many good movies were made in the 30s and 40s.
And a lot of those involved in films back then were patriotic. Like jimmy Stewart for example.
The pride of the Yankees is a great 40’s movie
Thanks but I have zero interest in baseball.

How do I put this?
A movie with an agenda in 1984 was about 95% movie and 5% agenda. I can enjoy such movies even when I disagree with their agenda.
In 2021, leftist agendas are so overt and pronounced that movies barely contain any movie. I can't watch five minutes of this shit.
Not sure you could have put it any better.
Silence of the lambs was on yesterday and I thought the same thing. Today, Buffalo Bill would be a hero - a tranny democrat who loved his dog and wild life.

You don’t get to use their logo in a show without their PR team approving the script.
Blackmail was always the FBI's purpose.
Full text of "J. Edgar Hoover - G-Man In A G-String"
Anyone remember Filegate?
Eastwood made a great movie about this.
What movie?
J Edgar by Clint Eastwood.

The piracy ep of iasip where the testaudience lady points out u're piracy is the reason the film is now woke
This is why I prefer old Westerns, where the bad guys get what's coming to them without anyone protesting that they were just going to the store for some skittles.
Same here! I'm 26 and grew up on 1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's westerns, absolutely love them. :)
Like Richard Jewell
Most of the tv shows that have three letter agencies in them are chalk full of trannies, gays (both sexes), or a fucking alien that is all of the above. It's all trash now. At least back in the old days of X-files, Mulder was straight and hated pedophiles. What a stark difference these days.

I can’t tell anymore, is that what they turned mulder into?
That would be FBI Bureau Chief Denise Bryson
Ah! My eyes! Ya got me. Not surprised that he would do drag though. He is a hollyweird.
They usually portray them as these stoic genius experts.
I'm thinking. Isn't there rope that looks vaguely like a noose somewhere you should be investigating.
That's because you've finally started seeing clearly
Copaganda. Been going on forever.
CHiPs were mirthful motorcycle mercenaries, highway hijinks abundant, back when. Just about every law enforcement show glorifies police.
It's part of a fuller agenda pushing a statist social order.
There's a youtuber talks about it a lot. He's a bit right-on lefty for my tastes though so I stopped watching him.
You only see propaganda because its all it ever was.
It's always been propaganda.
Once you accept that, then will you be on the journey to enlightenment.
Ah yes, but where does this journey of enlightenment take us?
Watch US Marshals or the Fugitive.
The ending of Red State = Waco
Same. It's a blackmail industry.
And they've got your entire web history.
Crazy isn't it. I'm just skeptical of everything now.
“The Martian” was pure CCP propaganda.
It's true.
Hollywood - "We will make you look good! Lots of pro movies and tv shows. You just have to only go after Republicans in real life."
"FBI - "Sounds good!"
I dont know, that Jimmy Stewart film was pretty good, and he was a stand up guy.
But its worth remembering from even back in the day the shenanigans that Hoover played to get ahead of Melvin Purvis and others, and the allegations of perversion levelled at him.

One of the best old movies I've ever seen was (G-Men, starring James Cagney), very interesting and exciting.
Which film?
The FBI Story 1959
X-Files 😢
I love them too
Xfiles still hold up
Most of the fbi is corrupt af in that show
Edit: classic xfiles
Looked at the first episode of the current FBI TV show when it began some years back. Turned it off in disgust after five minutes or so. The anti-Republican / conservative bias was nauseating.

I enjoy Mars Attacks! Especially at this time.

Dickwolf in shambles
But yeah, a law and order ep had the prosecutors office threaten facebook with childporn charges if they didn't give up data abt their suspect
I cant watch Law and Order anymore too much woke bullshit.
even beavis and butthead do america is propaganda to make the ATF look good
Cavity searches ... and I mean really get in there
The Sopranos makes the FBI/government look pretty fucking incompetent.
I don't watch movies or TV at all. It's ALL propaganda. Even the older shows and I just started seeing it when I was getting into enjoying MeTv, which I can't even stand now.

I think that was meant to be a joke though. Pointing out how ridiculous some former hippies are. It's become reality.
Better a daughter in a whorehouse than a son in the FBI.
Maybe if ure daughter takes enough cream, brazzers will hire her, petajensen started out as a stripper hoe after all
Once the mask is off, people can never go back to sleep.
That's what happened to many of the Boomers that fell into the Q moment. They finally woke up and then over dossed on red pills for awhile.
I like person of interest. Right about almost everything. But Vigilance should be the good guys.
alwayshasbeen.jpg
the unabomber and waco shows are worth watching.
Untouchables was great, and shows that there are maybe 4 honest LEOs in the country.
Replace "FBI" with literally anything, and the same holds true for me. The left has destroyed almost all entertainment at this point.
I can't watch any TV or movies anymore. Fuck them all. I got better things to do.
That's what it is, bought and paid for.
Soon all modern entertainment will look the same to you, it's not just the FBI. It's all propaganda promoting their atheist communist ideology and submission to authority. Hollywood and the media conglomerates are partners with academia in the propaganda machine that indoctrinates the masses.

You don't think Halo got money to tell a message? COD? MW?
And the CIA.
I’ve been watching old tonight shows with Johnny Carson.
The new show Clarice portrays them as the bunch of psychopaths they are.
I know. And it seems like it always has been.
