Does such a thing even exist any more?
Sort of kind of. The networks are rolling out some news show for the new year. Will Trent is one such show. It airs on ABC and we watched it last night.
As far as police procedurals go, it was pretty good. Will Trent works for the Georgia bureau of Investigation. All the other cops hate him because he just closed a major police corruption case that put away a lot of other cops. He's also much smarter than the other cops, a touch on the spectrum and dyslexic. He's monk only more serious.
In the pilot, there is murdered girl and a kidnapped girl. Trent is the one who realizes that there is also a kidnapping. There is a parallel undercover operation into drug sales. There is also quite the soap opera going on in the police force as cops hook up with cops and get assigned to partners they don't want to be assigned with. The usual tropes.
But the show has a bit of style and I am interested in the characters so I will watch more.
I continue to watch the Rookie as it completely abandons its presence at being a cop show and becomes a late night work place soap opera. Last night was a cross over event with Rookie: Feds. I've decided not to watch the second half because I just hate the lead character in that show.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
