I mean I know it's just for TV but does anyone else find that TVB totally glamorizes professions and make them look so easy to do?

For example, how is it in police shows that basically in a span of a few months that many major crimes can happen or you can solve 10 cold cases? In real life, some police detectives dedicate their whole life and might only solve only 1 or 2 cases. Also how do the lawyers in Ghetto Justice have so much time to eat afternoon tea, go drinking at the bar, and eat siu yeh, I mean the lawyers I know in real life, often work 80-100 hours a week and basically do nothing but work.

The list goes on, but I really think it's unfair that TVB is glamorizing these professions and making them appear so easy to do, when they are in fact quite challenging.

What do you think?
