Shrine of Dreams calls bullshit on TV crime shows. Read the post. It's a good one.
Don’t believe any of that stuff you see on TV. If you’re watching a show for the characters and the drama, fine. Just treat it as fantasy. The “scientists” are really magicians who can wave a wand or chant a spell like “Enhance!” and reveal the truth. Oh, and those shows where lawyers are the main characters? Nothing that you see has any resemblance to anything remotely like genuine legal practice. Period.I have to agree. Some of my favourite crime shows take place in bucolic English villages where two murders occur in each weekly installment. How preposterous is that? At that rate the entire would be wiped out in no time and a national emergency declared.
Ah, you watch "Midsomer Murders". My wife and I figure three homicides per episode: one at the beginning, one thirty minutes later, another an hour in, and then the last half hour to wrap things up.
