All Rise just aired its pilot episode on CBS Monday night and the new legal drama is chock full of wokeness. Judge Carmichael just happens to walk into the wrong courtroom and notices that one of the prisoners--a young woman named Daphne Riva--is not wearing pants. She begins to rebuke the room, including the old white male judge, the white lawyer representing Daphne, and the old white policeman who brought Daphne in. The courtroom scene escalates extremely quickly and almost unbelievably from Lola reprimanding people in the room for allowing Daphne in half naked, to the policeman going crazy, pulling a gun and shooting at the judge. It portrays cops, as prone to excessive violence and incapable of controlling their actions, putting the idea of police brutality and bias as a major issue in the mind of the viewer.
