Television has trouble with internal monologues. In books, the internal monologue of a character is easily included, but in a visual medium, the character needs someone to play off of.

Exposition is another area with which television struggles. In crime shows, it's easier. A recurring character shows up and provides a complete breakdown of the suspect's history. In dramas, it usually requires and awkward bit of dialogue that makes the viewer wonder if the writers have ever had a real human interaction.

There are several unrealistic aspects of crimes shows that we accept for expedience. One lab tech handles biological, chemical, and physical analyses of evidence. The computer tech can find out anything with a few key strokes. All this all happens within minutes, not the days or weeks real crime lab results take.

"City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty"

She seems rational.

That thing where you don't give a shit about pro sports for your whole life and then you get old and you know what Thursday night means to a bunch of idiots in Georgia, and then you're all like 'Well how 'bout that....'

This is a great way to offend Italian-Americans:
