What Did You Expect?
10 April 2022
I always laugh when I see reviews about cop shows that complain about the "realism" of the show. Really? What did you expect? Spoiler Alert! Hollywood cop shows aren't realistic! They solve complicated crimes in 45 minutes. CSI's don't do investigations, or carry guns, etc, but we watch it because it's entertaining and provides enough suspense for us to suspend our judgement on the realism. This episode was no different. It's not super unreasonable that a medical helicopter could be hijacked, at least enough of a probability to create an episode that provides us with 45 minutes of suspense and entertainment. If you need a cop show that is a bit more 'realistic' check out Bosch, which is a Prime Original and takes 12+ episodes to solve one crime, giving it a feeling of 'realism,' though you may find that too slow :)
