(Different Anon)

I think the idea for me isn't that all american crime television is bad, but more that there's a LOT of it. So much that, while a show may be good, the need to set it in an office/crime setting becomes kind of a weight in a lot of shows.

And the fact that there is so much of it, means the market is flooded. Sure there are a lot of gems, but there's a lot of bland stuff, too. And that is coming from a personal opinion, but there's only so many crime procedurals I can get through until it becomes tiring. And I love me a good crime procedural.

To me, there are simply too many, which at once raises the bar very high to create a new, innovative and interesting _version_ of a crime procedural. But at the same time, because of the success of many shows, it becomes easy to get a "pass" on many, many, many shows. I honestly feel like there are some shows on TV these days that had to "add in" a cop show element just to get the green light (I'm thinking of Grimm, Dexter *I'm not a h/c fan of either, just seen a few eps).
