Who came up with this idea that realism is a necessary and desirable component of entertainment? It seems to me that the reason for entertainment is to gain respite from the ugly realities of life. I realize that it can be carried to extremes, but I don't need to see an actors entrails in order to know that he got shot or to get a verbatim transcription of the profanity someone used in order to know that he cursed.
