Roving with crime
Yesterday, watching one of the 'All Time Greatest Simpson's' episodes on Channel 10, a pop up advertisement came up on the bottom of the screen:
'ROVE Live! 9:30 Tonight. It's not a cop show!'
At that moment I realised that I may not be the only person in Australia who is fed up with the surge in new crime-investigation related dramas that are flooding our televisions. Channel 10 have begun running 'Crime Scene Saturdays'. A marathon of cop shows from 8:30pm until 11:30pm. Uhuh, I'll see you there.
Is it the new obsession after 'reality TV'? Are we destined to be caught on our couches watching nothing but depressing murders, abductions and violence? If they want a reality-fad equivalent, I'll give them a murder-suicide if I see another Law & Order division.
To make matters worse, my sister has ordered another series of 'CSI: Crime Scene Invstigation' on DVD.
