Most lawyers don't fight exciting cases that expose a complex web of deceit.

Most police don't get into firefights with mastermind serial killers.

The families of martial arts masters have a homocide-by-mobsters rate that is in line with the general population.

Aliens do not invade very often.

None of these facts make for good entertainment.

I blame it on our instructor not having a murdered wife. Just a wife few would miss if she were.
