It could exaggerate contemporary issues, the way Startrek did

Imagine if a monster ate a family and tried to get a justified self-defence ruling 'cuz the family had a bunch of anti-monster paraphernalia and ice swords

That would be stupid for any number of reasons.

Which was an incredible concept, tbh.

I mean, the whole conversion to color thing in the Wizard of Oz was kinda freaky.

Colour tv really turns my knob on, if you know what I mean.

Fantasy settings exploring modern themes hasn't worked out quite as well in the past:

Maybe CSI: Camelot or something could work really well, but it's hard to see it.

I could see it being an entertaining gimmick for maybe 2-3 episodes, but keeping the idea engaging for a whole series would be very difficult.

A Shadowrun/Bright serial could work... or I could just watch the last season of Angel again

There's an amazing and free web game series called medieval cop as well as a few spin offs that are about as close as I think exists. Highly recommend.

Netflix should get on something like that and make it a spin-off in the Bright verse.

Id watch a law and order type show that saw paladins and clerics rounding up evil doers who then get defended/prosecuted in court by bards and wizards and shit

Kind of reminds me of Murdoch Mysteries... Like the concept, I guess... Just not as far back...

And your particular tastes, at this in this instance, suck.

A procedural cop show in a fantasy setting could be entertaining simply because it favors a monster-of-the-week format, but it would kinda fall apart in the courtroom... well, unless the episodes were super short (5-10 minutes) and strictly played for laughs, although Lok wants contemporary issues and a ST-like thing which is the opposite of that.

I enjoyed the show as something of a guilty pleasure. Looks like it's had a bunch of new seasons since last I watched it. However, there are a lot of old-timey detective stories like that so it's not entirely unusual.

"like ST" vs "ST-like" is close enough in terms of demonstrating intent.

Yeah. I had stopped watching a while ago for some reason. And now, there seems to be many more seasons. As for the show, I guess its because they use more science than other old timey detective shows. Which is why I thought of that one when they mentioned CSI: Camelot...

English Dub broke it into 3 seasons IIRC.

I know there were at least three different OPs.
