I watch them for both?

And also, this makes total sense, because the personal stories of people whose lives are about solving crimes and doing cool, important stuff that improves other people's lives is a whole lot more appealing than the personal stories of people whose lives are all about their own personal insular drama. They are much more likeable characters, and more interesting characters, and they make you *want* to know more about them.

Relatedly, while she crime procedural part may not be what you actually focus on, it's still essential. Just because something is not paid attention to, doesn't mean it's not important to keeping the mechanism going and make the characters who they are and make the atmosphere what you like. I mean, you may not pay attention to the bolts and screws that hold a bicycle together, you care about the wheels and the handles and the seat, but a bicycle without bolts and screws isn't a bicycle, it's a pile of metal that goes nowhere.

Also, because crime procedurals' personal stories usually leave more to the imagination than soap operas, which is way, way, way better for fanfic. I mean, something like, Downton Abbey follows every single step of every single character's subplot in detail -- there isn't a hell of a lot of fanfic potential there, because it's all already on the screen.
