Graham - We had this conversation about the quality of the show in other areas without Malia being anywhere near the discussion.

You and certain others on here hold Teen Wolf to an impossible standard of "realism" and refuse to admit that other shows are guilty of the same "sins" you've defined.

The Good Wife doesn't cover "months" in a single episode - they sometimes go "weeks" at a time but even still - court doesn't move that fast. I spend a good deal of time in court rooms and it snails. All legal shows take liberty with the timeline because the real thing doesn't work for TV.

And where is this Wall of Academia that I'm supposedly butting my head against? Please point me to a source that suggests that your level of "hyper-realism" is necessary for "quality TV writing."

Anon - Breaking Bad got lots of non-meth related science wrong, including the fact that you can't trickle charge a car battery with parts from a gasoline generator and the laws of physics broke down when they wanted to drop Walt on his head in The Fly.
