|Main character Captain Holt is an open homosexual in charge of the fictitious 99th police precinct in Brooklyn, New York City. However, his sexuality is downplayed for the most part, and this sitcom seems to humanize the police in an era when liberal news media does everything it can to dehumanize the authorities. It lightheartedly teaches that the police are likeable, three-dimensional everyday people with fairly normal internal and interpersonal obstacles to overcome in a humorous fashion, and it averts the preposterous liberal assumption that the police are racist with its multiracial main cast. On top of that, a number of villains that the detectives face are drug abusers or dealers, which supports war on illegal drugs, and main character Sgt. Terry Jeffords is a devout family man who prefers to act in the best interest of his wife and daughters, whom he does not want to see him killed in the line of duty.

|On the one hand, the three titular superhero girls seem to be the only protagonists capable of fighting their city’s various supervillains, while the police, consisting mostly of men, are depicted as bumbling and oafish, making the girls feministic (It doesn’t help that one of the working names for the trio was the more profane ''Whoop*** Girls''). Moreover, innuendoes may be peppered throughout (and are more apparent in the 2016 reboot series, much to the chagrin of even the most devoted fans).

On the other hand, as the girls were created by a scientist to be the “perfect little girls,” they could be more feminine rather than feminist. They try to fit into traditional gender roles despite their capabilities, and they learn family values from the professor who made them and serves as a responsible, knowledgeable, benevolent father-figure and a voice of reason well-versed in various scientific disciplines. Plus, the recurring antagonist “Him” is an obvious reference to [[Satan]], which hints at support for Christianity.
