Either way too much of anything is a poor excuse for good movie making I think.
Is this the same as casting only 8-10/10 female models/actors in movies too ?
Dont worry about their acting skills - so long as they look allright - she'll be right ! (pun intended)

HEAR HEAR!!!
I cannot watch CSI - "Anything" anymore as I cannot
stand the primary colours and shades of orange, blue and green "themed" in every scene! Makes me sick.
Add the fact that every police officer and Medical Examiner drives around in $60000+ USD cars and examine bodies in swamps wearing Armani suits and it just gets ridiculous. I would love to take a tour of the multi BILLION dollar Artistically designed and furnsihed Miami Dade PD and just see how much it looks like the screen version, doubt it! And the music video sequences when they do "forensic" work are just nauseating. Imagine..."Daddy, I want to grow up to be a Forensic Investigator so I can take 22 seconds with rock music in the background to find evidence using million dollar machines which extract DNA and match it to massive databases in 15 seconds and all the computers make stupid blippy noises when the information scrolls down the screen"
Now, before everyone canes me with how its supposed to be entertainment blah blah blah.....come on... I know its built for American brains and is all flashy and purile to be able to entertain mind numbingly stupid people, but really...
I noticed and despised camera shake on one of the first shows to use it, NYPD Blue and it just took off from there. Drives me insane.
Right. That's how I feel about all this.
