Summary:Is feminism compatible with mainstream TV cop shows? In the early 1980s, Cagney and Lacey made an impact on television. With its openly feminist agenda, the show broke away from a tradition of glamorized female law enforcers on screen, concentrating on a duo of ordinary New York female cops whose work resonated with the situation of women both at home and in the work place. When Rizzoli and Isles picked up on the female buddy formula in 2010, however, the formula was redirected towards a return to a glamorous version of feminism, rewriting in the singular a cause entirely divested of its social and political dimension.
