I'm simply tired of the regurgitated ideas that network TV and most cable stations come out with. There are way too many shows about cops and doctors. I think the reason shows like Big Bang Theory, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, and How I Met Your Mother are so popular is because they AREN'T based on those 2 topics. Law and Order, CSI, and other shows like Grey's Anatomy are all regurgitated cop and doctor dramas.
I'm not saying the Bridge is like that, but on the surface it looks like a buddy cop drama. The major networks seem to keep coming up with them every single fall too.
