“It’s Entertainment,” all the way, baby.
In fact, none of the popular prime time drama shows (Grey’s Anatomy, NCIS, House MD, Crossing Jordon) accurately portray the occupations featured but c’mon — it’s TV.
Really, the process of crime-processing/fighting that goes on on Crossing Jorndan, NCSI and the CSI franchise all contradict each other.
And I couldn’t care less. It’s the boob tube, for pete’s sake. Kick back in your Lazy Boy, eat yer popcorn and, um…shaddap.

Yeah, it is entertainment. They get some things right, but the whole video/photo/sound enhancement thing is made up. You can’t really do that. There’s nothing under the blurs on video feed, but it gets the show along and it’s fun. But it’s not all fake…

For the most part I’d go with “It’s entertainment!” but I do roll my eyes when they use magic-science (like the voice recorded in the clay pot on LV or the confession based on a snowflake on NY). I’m fine with everything being faster, with the CSIs doing waaay to much, and with the impossible video tricks, but the magic-science kind of annoys me.
