If one were to ask me to list some of my favorite television shows, most would easily fall under the category of crime and spy dramas. From Law & Order to Alias to the new series Rizzoli & Isles, I can't get enough. You wouldn't think a young teenager would so easily fall in love with a show following a bunch of detectives in New York City looking for justice. Law & Order isn't even the type of television show depicting extreme violence and action. At the start of the show, the crime has already been committed. The viewers are left to follow the trail from the crime scene to the court room. Not exactly a show younger people would fall in love with. But I did and I haven't stopped watching since.
It's a little easier to see though why I love fall so deeply in love with Alias. The show starred Jennifer Garner as a double agent for the CIA. It was high drama and a lot of sexy outfits. Plus it's totally awesome to watch a woman beat up men. Despite the farfetched plot lines towards the end of the series, it was a show I couldn't stop watching. Covert Affairs on USA Network has taken its place but with a more realistic outlook. It's the perfect dose of drama with lighthearted humor sprinkled on top. Plus, I imagine working for the CIA is a bit more like that show.
So why do I love watching justice being dished out where it is due, especially with strong female leads? I think it mainly has to do with the fact that I wish I could go into these fields. If I had more patience and determination, I'd like to think I would make a great lawyer. The law is an intricate web of rules and regulations and for whatever reason, it fascinates me. Same with detective work. I could never be a cop. I neither have the physical strength nor the stomach to deal with brutal murders. I doubt I'd make a good detective if I were able to work my way up. All I can do is live vicariously through these fictional characters.
If I had my choice of careers though, it would hands down be for the CIA. Again, I don't have that whole physicality aspect to be a spy. Nor can I speak several languages and think quickly on the spot. I'd literally be the worst spy on the planet. I can dream can't I? And dream I shall continue to do. I'll get my kicks watching these television shows, hoping that my life may be different. I know I'll never be the next Sydney Bristow or Jack McCoy, but the shows will always satisfy my inner crime fighter and I can live with that.

More entertainment articles: - Mexican Magazines (Robert Nickel)
In North America we have Vogue and Elle, GQ and National Geographic, and hundreds of other magazines on topics of all kinds. Some of the big international names have a Latino version as well, but let's take a brief look at some of the lesser known Mexican magazines you might find at a newsstand. Some are rather amusing, others are shocking, but either way they make an interesting souvenir to bring home! - Reclaiming Fantasy (Daniel Morrison)
It is a wild and harrowing fight to snatch fantasy out of the clutches of mythology and set it right, weeding out unintended undertones and offering the reader a captivating, life-giving experience. Christian artist/authors Daniel and Christina are not just interested in reclaiming fantasy they are built for it. Committed to collaboration their work grows synergistic putting many things into allignment for the arts and fantasy. - Mexican Academy Award Nominees (Robert Nickel)
In the previous instalment of this series we covered the few people and films from Mexico that have earned an Academy Award. Now we will move on to those who were nominated, but never actually won. It's important to understand that a nomination without the actual award is still a lofty achievement. Liken it to achieving a silver or bronze medal at the Olympic Games, still at noteworthy accomplishment! So, let's take a look. - Mexican Academy Award Winners (Robert Nickel)
The Academy Awards; the Holy Grail for anyone involved in the movie industry all over the world. It symbolizes recognition of exceptional work in the film industry as much as it signifies the promise of more work to come. American actors have won more Academy Awards than any other nationality, but perhaps that is because their nation created the Academy. Mexico has a presence on the Academy Award lists, and it is a well deserved presence. - DJ Cool Herc And The German Geek (Christian Walker)
What does DJ Cool Herc and a German computer geek have to do with hip hop music? - TV In Cancun (Robert Nickel)
We all hope for the best when we head to Cancun for a much-deserved getaway, but let's face it, there will be at least a little bit of time with the television on. Sure, we say things like "why would I turn the TV on? I can watch TV at home!" But once we are in the room, it's late at night and we're settling in for some sleep, curiosity gets the better of us.
